These Are The Requirements For New Residents To Recover From COVID-19 And People With Comorbidities To Enter The Mall Without Having A Vaccine Certificate
JAKARTA - The government has allowed malls or shopping centers in four cities that have implemented PPKM Level 4 to reopen. The cities are Jakarta, Bandung, Semarang and Surabaya.
Visitors are allowed to enter the mall as long as they have carried out the vaccination, at least the first dose. Then, can residents who have not or cannot be vaccinated still be able to enter the mall?
It is known, people who have just recovered from COVID-19 infection must wait for 3 months to be vaccinated. Then, people with comorbidities or comorbidities also cannot be vaccinated.
Chairperson of the DKI Jakarta Indonesian Shopping Center Management Association (APPBI) Ellen Hidayat said the two groups could still visit the mall on condition that they were tested for COVID-19.
The stipulation is that people who have just recovered from COVID-19 show negative results for an antigen test within a maximum of 1x24 hours or a PCR swab for a maximum of 2x24 hours, plus a proof that has been confirmed positive.
"For those who have just recovered from being positive for COVID-19, show evidence of an antigen test or PCR test with a negative result and the last positive result, along with an ID card to the examining officer who is at the entrance to the shopping center," said Ellen to VOI, Thursday, 12 August.
Meanwhile, people with comorbidities also show negative results for antigen tests within a maximum of 1x24 hours or PCR swabs for a maximum of 2x24 hours.
"For those who have not or cannot vaccinate for health reasons, show evidence of an antigen test or PCR test with a negative result and the last positive result, along with an ID card to the examining officer who is at the entrance to the shopping center," he said.
In addition, said Ellen, children under 12 years old and over 70 years old are not allowed to enter the mall. The maximum visitor capacity is 25 percent with the provisions of operating hours starting at 10:00 to 20:00 WIB.
"Food and beverage dine-in has not been opened, only take away is allowed. Cinemas, entertainment, and children's games have not been opened yet," said Ellen. Lelih continued, Ellen said, currently there are 70 malls in Jakarta that have received QR code for operational checking of vaccination certificates. This week, the use of QR codes is still in an experiment even though it has been implemented.
"This week is QR code trial week and is a week of socialization for the community. This additional health protocol procedure will continue to be perfected by PeduliLindung," said Ellen.
"Currently, the government has assigned a shopping center to start first, which in the future will also be used for industry and other business actors," he continued.
