JAKARTA - The implementation of Emergency PPKM in Java and Bali has been running for eleven days. DKI Jakarta Deputy Governor Ahmad Riza Patria hopes that COVID-19 cases in the capital city will begin to decline on the last day of the Emergency PPKM implementation on 20 July.
"Until the 20th, hopefully we can meet the significant reduction target and in the following days we will get good results," said Deputy Governor Riza when met in the South Jakarta area, Tuesday, July 13.
Currently, COVID-19 cases in Jakarta have not shown any decline. However, Deputy Governor Riza said there had been a decline in the mobility or movement of residents.
