Although the increase in the number of positive cases continues to increase at the national level, the opposite is true in several provinces. Based on the data, there are seven provinces with minimal increase in the number of positive cases of the corona virus.
"Several provinces in the country have shown a good picture, there are no more significant cases of additional cases. Then there is no further expansion of the affected areas and there is no more uncontrolled local transmission," said Yuri at Graha BNPB, Jakarta, Wednesday, 27 May.
With the minimal number of additional positive cases or infections in the province, said Yuri, relaxation can be applied to show the sector that declined during the mid-week of COVID-19. However, it must still prioritize health protocols.
"In these areas, we say that it is under control and we can start suggesting relaxation in some regulations without leaving the aspects of health protocols to ensure that it is safe from COVID-19," Yuri said.
However, it must wait for a decision from the Central Task Force. Because, this discourse will be discussed first to consider all the consequences.
"Later we will comprehensively report it to the central health center for joint review so that the government's decision is the best decision which is not shown to increase the number of cases we find," said Yuri.
