Negative PCR From Germany, 2 Women Protest Under Quarantine In Indonesia: Hotel Prices Are Expensive To Accuse Covid-19 Business
JAKARTA - The admission of two women who underwent self-quarantine after returning from Germany suddenly went viral on TikTok. Through their @diaheropa account, the two women poured their hearts out to compare the conditions of Indonesia with Germany.
There are three videos uploaded to the account with a duration of approximately 45 seconds. The two of them each exchanged stories about the different conditions in Europe and Indonesia.
They wondered why they had to undergo quarantine in Indonesia while the results of the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) in Germany had been stated negatively. The government, they said, had offered to be quarantined at the Wisma Atlet beforehand.
However, because of the confusing news, they finally chose quarantine at the hotel. When the video was uploaded, they had been in quarantine for 6 days.
"We prefer (quarantine) to be independent because I am a coward. The news is also confusing, some say that at the Wisma Atlet it will be positive (COVID). Some say that self-quarantine will be negative. So I am very worried that I will be independent in choosing to the hotel, sharing to the hotel", said a woman in the video @diaheropa.
On the sixth day of the quarantine, the two of them protested that they had exhausted their pockets. At least (while showing the hotel payment note) the money spent is IDR 6.5 million. Not to mention the cost of the PCR which was carried out twice.
This condition is clearly different from Europe, which does not require citizens from abroad to undergo quarantine. Originally, the PCR results showed negative COVID-19.
"I went to Europe in 2019, there is no such thing as quarantine. I just came there to show me negatively and there is no such thing as corona costs."
Three videos shared on TikTok @diaheropa were uploaded 5 days ago or on Saturday, March 14. On Wednesday, March 17, each video has been watched by approximately 8-10 thousand people.
