JAKARTA - DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan hopes that the DKI Provincial Government will no longer add isolation locations for COVID-19 patients in the capital city. Because, there are already a number of isolation locations prepared.

"This (prepared isolation location) is first. Hopefully there won't be more," said Anies when met at Koja Hospital, North Jakarta, Tuesday, June 29.

Currently, the DKI Provincial Government has provided the Nagrak Flats (Rusun) in Cilincing, North Jakarta as a COVID-19 isolation location.

As of today, there are 1,157 isolated patients in the Nagrak Flat. Yesterday, towers 2 and 3 of the Nagrak Flat were filled with 1,050 patients. Today added 107 patients, bringing the total to 1,157 COVID-19 isolation patients.

In addition, the DKI Provincial Government has established the Pasar Rumput Flats, South Jakarta to accommodate COVID-19 isolation patients. Now, the facilities are still being prepared.

Then, Daan Mogot Flats, West Jakarta and Pulo Gebang Flats, East Jakarta will also be prepared as locations for self-isolation specifically for COVID-19.

"Later we will gradually prepare everything, but use it step by step. We make sure one place is fully used, then an additional place because the management is easier," explained Anies.

On the other hand, the central government also accommodates thousands of COVID-19 isolation patients in the COVID-19 Emergency Flats at the Kemayoran and Pademangan Athletes' Wisma.

Anies also explained that the current surge in the volume of patients being treated was very high. He realized that health facilities needed additional support, both resources and manpower for medical and non-medical purposes.

For example, power to facilitate the transfer of tools, oxygen cylinders, and so on. It is hoped that by doing so, medical personnel will focus more on the process of treating and healing patients.

Therefore, Anies promised to mobilize workers to be able to help health and support workers who are currently working in hospitals. This is done so that the medical team can focus on treating patients and other supporting activities can be assisted.

"We will provide support from other agencies to be placed in hospitals, so that we can prepare the need for support personnel for non-medical activities. For example, preparing food, packing drugs, moving oxygen cylinders in a very fast time and the volume is much larger. more than usual, which has never happened before,” explained Anies.
