JAKARTA - Good news for residents of East Java who are in self-isolation who need oxygen. The East Java Provincial Government provides oxygen using refillable cylinders for free.

East Java Governor, Khofifah Indar Parawansa, said the filling of oxygen cylinders was placed in Sidoarjo and Mojokerto areas, with the filling place in Sidoarjo.

"The way to get free oxygen is to register at infocovid19. jatimprov.go.id", She said on the sidelines of a review of filling oxygen cylinders in Sidoarjo as reported by Antara, Monday, July 19.

He said the provision of oxygen cylinder refill facilities to support health facilities for residents in Sidoarjo and Mojokerto who are self-isolation and to support ambulance facilities in need.

"This activity is an effort to provide an easy supply of oxygen to residents who are self-isolation. In addition to residents, it is also to support ambulance operations in need", said Khofifah.

She said that refilling oxygen cylinders was free, meaning they had to bring their own cylinders to the location, and residents were allowed to refill them twice a day.

"In addition to residents, it also supports ambulance facilities in which there are oxygen cylinders", she said.

On the same occasion, Sidoarjo Regent, Ahmad Muhdlor or who is familiarly called Gus Muhdlor, said that in his area four oxygen factories were ready.

He said the quota given now is for residents who carry out self-isolation only, not for hospitals. As for the hospital, it already has its own posts.
