He conveyed that while waiting for laboratory results, his party had prepared a health team to monitor patients at the hospital, if the cases continued to be found, quick steps would be taken to prevent transmission. The status case in Tasikmalaya City, he said, had existed since last year, and his party had examined 30 people, the result was positive because of▁dirinyamposis.
