JAKARTA - Minister of Finance (Menkeu) Sri Mulyani Indrawati emphasized that the public must help the government in controlling the spread of COVID-19 in Indonesia because cases are increasing day by day.
"It needs to be supported by all of our society," said Sri Mulyani in an online discussion, quoted from Antara, Thursday 3 December.
Sri Mulyani said that the COVID-19 cases around the world currently have reached more than 64.5 million people with a death toll of 1.49 million.
In Indonesia alone until December 3, 2020, there have been 550 thousand cases with a total death toll of 17,199 people and more than 5 thousand people per day in the last week.
Therefore, Sri Mulyani ensured that the government would continue to be vigilant in dealing with COVID-19, both in terms of controlling its spread, increasing the community's recovery rate, and preventing death.
He explained that the government's efforts were reflected in increasing the 3T steps, namely testing more than 30 thousand people per day, tracing, and treatment.
Sri Mulyani said that the community can contribute to the discipline of implementing health protocols in every activity through 3M, namely using masks, maintaining distance, and washing hands with soap.
"That is our prerequisite to remain vigilant and control COVID-19 so that we can carry out productive and innovative activities so that we can restore community and economic activities," Sri Mulyani explained.
