Anticipating The Spike Of COVID In The Christmas And New Year Holidays, Ridwan Kamil Supports The Implementation Of Level 3 PPKM

JABAR - West Java Governor M Ridwan Kamil supports the central government's steps to re-implement the Level 3 Community Activity Restrictions (PPKM) throughout Indonesia.

This step is an effort by the government to prevent a spike in COVID-19 cases during the 2021 Christmas and 2022 New Year holidays.

"The West Java Provincial Government will follow the rules from the central government, so that the momentum of the sloping number of cases can be maintained. If it is a decision from the central government, I think we will adjust so that the number of crowds, the number of activities during the year-end holidays can be controlled better," said Ridwan Kamil in a press release in Bandung, Antara, Friday, November 19.

According to Ridwan Kamil, the COVID-19 pandemic is still not over. Although currently, the number of cases and the occupancy of beds in hospitals (Bed Occupancy Rate / BOR) has started to sag.

"The important thing is that COVID has now gone down and we must continue to maintain it. Don't let us be euphoric so that it rises again at the end of the year," he said.

Ridwan Kamil also asked all parties to remain vigilant and disciplined in carrying out health protocols (prokes). Because controlling COVID-19 cannot be done by one party alone.

"The COVID-19 pandemic teaches that it cannot be controlled only by one region, but must cross regions and work together," said Ridwan Kamil.
