JAKARTA - Cirebon Mayor Nashrudin Azis made a surprise inspection of a traditional market. Nashrudin wants to know about community behavior regarding the application of health protocols (prokes) after positive cases of COVID-19 in the area rose.

"The case of COVID-19 in Cirebon City has increased again, let's return to wearing masks, so that economic activities can run as usual," said Nashrudin, Friday, February 4, as reported by Antara.

He said, people are now very lax in implementing health protocols, especially the use of masks. He is also aware that this pandemic has been going on for a long time and people are tired of dealing with this situation.

However, continued Azis, the COVID-19 pandemic is not over yet. For this reason, his party immediately went to the field to conduct education and monitor the implementation of health protocols in the midst of the community.

He said the use of masks is now much more effective to ward off the transmission of COVID-19 which has re-emerged after the last few months of sloping.

"After monitoring, there are indeed many people who are no longer wearing masks, for that it is necessary to re-educate, so that they can ward off COVID-19," he said.

He said when the COVID-19 case in Cirebon City rose and could not be controlled, then of course there would be enforcement of regulations in dealing with the pandemic.

"Like the judicial operation, we will do it again, so that people will return to comply with the health procedures," he said.

The number of COVID-19 cases in Cirebon City has increased significantly in the past few days, where on Thursday (3/2) there were 21 additional cases bringing the total to 61 people.

"Although most are undergoing self-isolation, there has been a significant increase in cases," he said.
