JAKARTA - Deputy Governor of DKI Jakarta, Ahmad Riza Patria, said that currently, the proportion of cases of COVID-19 transmission of the Omicron variant in the capital through local transmission is higher than that of foreign travelers (PPLN).
Based on today's records, 3,751 cases of Omicron have been found. A total of 52.6 percent of them are local transmissions and 47.4 percent are PPLN.
"Now this local spread is a concern. So we can no longer blame foreigners coming to Jakarta and so on. In fact, now (the Omicron case) is increasing internally", said Riza at DKI City Hall, Central Jakarta, Tuesday, February 8.
In this regard, Riza revealed that the increase in the PPKM (Community Activity Restrictions) level assessment to Level 3 was due to the low number of contact tracing.
"This is not because of the high number of COVID-19, but because of the lack of tracing", said Riza.
However, Riza claims that tracing in Jakarta is already quite high. However, tracing in the buffer zone, namely Bodetabek, is still low. Given that the PPKM level assessment is uniform in the Jabodetabek agglomeration area, Jakarta has also moved up to PPKM Level 3.
"Even though DKI Jakarta is a province with a high tracing rate, we cannot stand alone, we must also pay attention to other areas", he said.
