The National Police Chief said that for border areas, the numbers are still under control, but Kudus's situation must be controlled, so that it doesn't spread.

The National Police Chief emphasized the need to strengthen 3M education, Micro PPKM, compliance with the use of masks. Health protocols must be constantly reminded to the public.

At a minimum, he said, everyone reminded each other to be disciplined about the health protocol, namely 3 M (wearing masks, washing hands and avoiding crowds).
