SURABAYA - Mayor of Mojokerto, East Java Ika Puspita Sari tested positive for COVID-19, based on the results of the swab test. Ika is a positive person without symptoms (OTG).

"I interact a lot with many people, and I also routinely do a repid test every two weeks, and yesterday the results were positive," Ning Ita said, Wednesday, December 30.

Ning Ita delivered this directly in a virtual manner, in the implementation of the inauguration and the taking of oaths or appointments for the first high-ranking officials, administrators, supervisors and functions in their official residence.

Ning Ita suspected that she had contracted COVID-19 from her employees in ring one. Because, one of the employees tested positive for Covid-19 first. So he did the swab test together, and the results came out on Monday.

"We did the whole swab and my results were positive. But Alhamdulillah I did not experience any symptoms and was healthy," he said.

Ning Ita is currently serving as virtual mayor of Mojokerto because he is isolated at home independently. "I can still do the government's task in this way (virtual)," he added.

According to the plan, Ning Ita in the next two days will carry out a repeat swab test to find out her condition. "Hopefully the results can be non-reactive and can return to normal activities as usual," he said.
