Prevent Corona Virus With Cards

JAKARTA - Soekarno Hatta Airport provides a Health Alert Card (HAC) to passengers arriving from China and Hong Kong. This step was taken to prevent the spread of the corona virus from entering Indonesia.

The HAC will later become data for the airport to monitor passenger movements. The data contains the date of arrival for later medical quarantine if the passenger shows symptoms of illness for a certain period of time.

HAC is given by airline officers to passengers from the time they are on the plane and before landing. Apart from HAC, the airport also uses two thermal scanners at Terminal 2F and four other units at Terminal 3 to monitor passenger body temperatures.

Head of Soekarno Hatta Airport Port Health Office, Doctor Anas Maaruf, his party has also prepared a unit of Isolation Chamber or isolation room as well as an ambulance to bring suspected passengers to Sulianto Saroso Hospital, RSPAD or Friendship Hospital.

According to Corsec Angkasa Pura II Febri Toga Simatupang, there are 34 scheduled flights from China and Hong Kong with a total of 2,500 arrivals per day. That number is the same as the number of people infected with the corona virus around the world. According to the data we collected, 80 of them died.
