Therefore, said Ridwan Kamil, the mobility or movement of residents between the Bogor, Depok and Bekasi (Bodebek) and Bandung areas is currently being watched out for.

According to him, currently the number of COVID-19 cases is high, but the hospital occupancy rate is still safe, unlike when the Delta variant of the COVID-19 case was endemic in the country.

"When Delta (variant) used to have high cases and high BOR, now cases are high, BOR is still low," he said. Furthermore, he said face-to-face learning or PTM in six areas with high COVID-19 cases will also be evaluated.

"PTMs were evaluated in the six cities, the trends cannot be equated. So, if you ask about COVID, don't ask West Java too general, because they are different," he said.

He said a number of hospitals in West Java were already prepared for the current surge in COVID-19 cases, such as increasing the capacity of treatment rooms for COVID-19 patients.

"We have started to increase the capacity of the hospital again, oxygen is prepared and the Minister of Health directs if the symptoms are mild or have no symptoms, there is no need to ask for hospital treatment," he said.
