The total beds in Jambi Province are 4,083 places. Based on KMK Number 14 of 2021, the mandatory bed availability for COVID-19 patients is 1,125 places.

Then H. Hanafie Hospital in Bungo Regency, HA Major General Thalib Hospital in Sungai Penuh City, and Abdul Manap Hospital in Jambi City.

"Other hospitals, both government-owned and private, which act as referral hospitals for COVID-19 patients, must immediately 'update' beds for COVID-19 patients on 'online' hospital applications," said Al Haris.

In addition, hospitals are also asked to report daily progress of oxygen availability data through the online hospital application.

Local governments are also asked to reactivate centralized isolation houses (isoters) in anticipation of an increase in COVID-19 cases.
