JAKARTA - Three-pillar officers in Kamal Urban Village, West Jakarta, disseminated health protocols using "pocong" props and coffins to remind people in the area about the dangers of spreading the Delta variant of COVID-19.

"The purpose of the socialization is to make the public aware," said Kasatpol PP Kamal Village, Solihul Amri, quoted by Antara, Monday, July 5.

The officers from the village, TNI, and Police elements were walking around carrying the coffin and props in the form of "pocongs" on Kebon Dua Ratus street RW01 Kamal, Kalideres District, West Jakarta.

Such socialization attracts the attention of local residents because it is carried out in a unique way to remind the public of the dangers of the new variant of COVID-19.

Officials visited residential areas and places of business while providing explanations regarding health protocols (prokes) to avoid the spread of COVID-19.

Officers appealed to the public to wear masks, wash hands with running water, avoid crowds and reduce activities outside the home.

In addition, joint officers distributed masks to the public and sprayed disinfectant along the road.

Currently, the government is implementing the Enforcement of Emergency Community Activity Restrictions (PPKM) in Java and Bali on 3-20 July 2021.

This rule was followed by Metro Jaya Police by establishing 72 locations for blocking and restricting the mobility of residents around the border, protocol roads, and inner-city toll roads.
