JAKARTA - Livehouse Kemang is usually synonymous with the sound of music and the typical noise of South Jakarta. However, there was something different on Sunday, January 18. Since the morning, hundreds of residents of Bangka Village gathered not to party at night, but to equip themselves against the health threat that is lurking: Superflu.

In the midst of Jakarta's unpredictable weather, the term "Superflu" is now a hot topic of discussion. Not just a common flu, this virus is known to be more aggressive with symptoms of high fever and shortness of breath that should not be taken lightly.

Education that is no longer boring

Many people often ignore when they get flu. However, in a health seminar initiated by Holywings Peduli together with Tiger Kemang, residents are invited to be more "familiar" with their own bodies. Education is given casually but in-depth, emphasizing that early detection is the key to keeping the immune system from falling.

Not only listening to the material, about 50 residents have the privilege to undergo a comprehensive health examination. Starting from checking blood sugar levels, cholesterol, to complete blood laboratory tests are carried out to ensure that their body condition remains in good condition.

"The seminar is very informative and the doctor's explanation is easy to understand," said Rara, one of the participants. "In addition to being able to learn about superflu, I can also directly check my health. It's really positive!"

Happiness is Medicine: From Medical Check-up to Karaoke

Interestingly, this event proves that maintaining health does not have to always feel stiff. After a serious medical session, the atmosphere of the Kemang Livehouse turned lively with the title of the People's Party.

Laughter broke out when hundreds of residents took part in exciting races, ranging from throwing balls with food prizes, glass relay, to karaoke races that brought residents together in joy. This step has a noble goal: maintaining mental health and increasing immunity through happiness.

Neighbor's Commitment to Each Other

Andrew Susanto, President Commissioner of the Holywings Group and Chairman of the Holywings Peduli CSR Program, said that this activity was a way for them to get closer to the surrounding residents.

"We want to invite the public to be more concerned about health in an educational way. Not only providing services, we want to encourage the habit of doing routine examinations as a preventive measure from an early age," said Andrew.

Through a unique combination of medical screening and warm social activities, Kemang residents now return home with more than just a race prize. They return home with new knowledge to protect their families from the virus, as well as a new spirit that a healthy lifestyle can be started in a fun way.
