BATAM - After the COVID-19 transmission rate has continued to decline since August, a new cluster has emerged. There are six people exposed to the corona virus who are family members of a puskesmas doctor in Batam City, Riau Islands.
"The additional six people are one family cluster," said Batam City Health Service Head Didi Kusmarjadi as quoted by Antara, Thursday, November 4.
