JAKARTA - West Java Governor M Ridwan Kamil prayed for the recovery of DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan and DKI Jakarta Deputy Governor Ahmad Riza Patria, who were confirmed positive for COVID-19.
"I pray for a speedy recovery, to be able to lead again optimally. I also pray for the Deputy Governor, Mr. Riza and Mr. Said Aqil Siradj as Chairman of the PBNU as well as other public figures who have indeed made public announcements in recent weeks. , "he said at Gedung Sate Bandung, reported by Antara, Tuesday, December 1.
He argued that leaders and public figures should make an announcement to the public if they have contracted COVID-19 so that people who have had direct contact with them can immediately get checked out.
"That's because public figures have a lot of interactions with their subordinates, with their followers, etc. So they can't be categorized as patient secrets, because if they are public figures, the obligation to the public falls," he said.
The governor said that he had undergone routine checks last week and was declared not to have contracted COVID-19.
"Alhamdulillah, I myself (checked) the swab last week, there was no problem. Thank God. And the vaccine will be announced this month. Hopefully I will be healthy, healthy because of the vaccine," he said.
Ridwan Kamil, who is also a volunteer for the clinical trial of the COVID-19 vaccine from Sinovac, also said that the results of vaccine testing will be announced this December.
"If it turns out that 90 percent of my blood has immunity, that means I have been healthy so far, because the vaccine is functioning as expected. We'll just wait, maybe in a week or two the team's decision (submitted)," he said.
