JAKARTA - Central Java Governor Ganjar Pranowo appealed to residents to stay at home during year-end holidays to prevent the spread of COVID-19.

"I ask that in the end of year holidays, try to be in their respective regions, if you can celebrate with your family and not leave your respective cities, that will be very helpful," said Ganjar in Semarang, reported by Antara, Thursday, December 3.

On the other hand, Ganjar also reminded people who took year-end holidays to remain alert to COVID-19.

According to him, during holidays residents tend to be careless by being in a crowd so that they have the potential to be exposed to COVID-19.

Apart from that, Ganjar said this appeal was also to convince those who were preparing for the face-to-face school discourse starting in January 2021.

"I'm not sure yet, so that we can convince everyone, let's take care of ourselves in facing the year-end holidays to stay in our respective places, in our respective regions, with our respective families, and that will really help us. all in dealing with the increasing COVID-19 pandemic, "he said.
