BOGOR - Bogor Regent Ade Yasin said the number of inpatients at hospitals (RS) began to fill up when the COVID-19 transmission rate reached 1,121 cases per day.
"It's starting to fill up with inpatients. Even though the President (Jokowi) has said that this variant of Omicron can be cured without having to go to the hospital," he said in Cibinong, Bogor Regency, West Java, as reported by Antara, Friday, February 4.
The head of the Bogor Regency COVID-19 Task Force noted that there was an increase in the number of inpatients in almost every Bogor Regency hospital. This condition is directly proportional to the sharp increase in daily cases.
Ade Yasin said, from the latest data, February 4, 2022 when the COVID-19 transmission rate reached 1,121 cases per day, the Bed Occupancy Rate (BOR) for isolation beds for COVID-19 patients reached 48.78 percent of the total 740 beds.
The occupancy rate for the intensive care room or ICU for COVID-19 patients has also increased since the last two weeks to 27.78 percent of the total 90 ICU beds.
The centralized isolation place (Isoter) at Wisma Cibinong, Megamendung is now filled again. Currently occupied 45 beds out of 60 available beds.
Ade Yasin appealed to the public to follow President Jokowi's advice, which ensures that COVID-19 patients with the Omicron variant can recover without having to go to the hospital.
"People should follow the President's recommendation. Because this Omicron variant can be cured without us going to the hospital," he said.
As is known, the daily COVID-19 transmission rate in Bogor Regency has experienced a sharp spike since January 18-19 2022, to 42 cases and 43 cases, from the previous 2-11 cases per day.
