JAKARTA - The Coordinator of the Kemayoran Athlete Hospital Emergency Hospital Major general Ratmono said that the occupancy rate for COVID-19 patient care beds today has reached 77.63 percent.

This usage rate decreased from yesterday which reached 84.02 percent. As of today, there are 77 people who have recovered and have finished undergoing treatment at the Kemayoran Athlete House.

"At Wisma Atlet Hospital, we reported that the occupancy this morning was 77.63 percent. So, of the 5,994 available beds, 4,653 patients are currently occupied," said Task in a discussion at Graha BNPB, East Jakarta, Monday, January 25.

In details, 4,653 patients who were being treated consisted of 2,445 men and 2,208 women, all with mild to severe symptoms were treated in towers 4, 5, 6, and 7, while patients without symptoms were transferred to towers 8 and 9 at Wisma Atlet Pademangan, North Jakarta.

"Then there are those who are referred to the referral hospital every day because the facilities at the Wisma Atlet Hospital are only for the mild and moderate ones," he said.

Despite experiencing a decrease in the number of COVID-19 patients with mild and moderate symptoms being treated, Tasks said that bed filling is still high.

In fact, not a few patients who were treated at Wisma Atlet died due to severe symptoms and had not been referred to the COVID-19 referral hospital.

"Recently, the number of cases who died has also increased. If in the past one month could only be one, that was because it was too heavy to arrive, now it is because we were referring to a referral hospital where we could not find a place before being referred to a dead person," he said.

"This means that at this time we do not know that a patient who is mild, moderate or severe, could die a few days later. We have to watch it together," he concluded.
