One Family In Cipayung, East Jakarta Positive For COVID-19, Brought To Wisma Atlet

JAKARTA - A total of seven people from one family were evacuated to the Kemayoran Athlete Wisma Emergency Hospital because they were positive for COVID-19 based on the results of the PCR test at RW 03 Setu Village, Cipayung, East Jakarta.

Lurah Setu Jenuri said that overall in the family there were 10 people who were positive for COVID-19. Three other people were rushed to Adhyaksa Hospital because they had symptoms.

“In the neighborhood, residents feel uncomfortable. We are negotiating with the family who initially didn't want to, eventually they wanted to be taken to the Wisma Atlet," Jenuri said in Jakarta, as reported by Antara, Monday, June 14.

Jenuri added that seven people from one family who were positive for COVID-19 were taken by school bus to Wisma Atlet Kemayoran.

Jenuri said that his party had also carried out a micro-lockdown in the RW 03 area of Setu Village.

In addition, his party has also mobilized officers to spray disinfectant in the family's house.

Furthermore, Jenuri said that one family who was positive for COVID-19 had just returned from a holiday in Bali.

He said previously the family was reluctant to be taken to the Wisma Atlet and preferred to self-isolate.

"Local residents refused to allow the family to self-isolate at home for fear of being exposed," said Jenuri.
