JAKARTA - Coordinating Minister for Maritime Affairs Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan confirmed that the COVID-19 death toll would be announced again after the repairs were completed. Previously, the COVID-19 death toll was not announced due to an error in calculating the data in the regions.
"Regarding the mortality indicator, I need to emphasize that we do not issue a permanent death indicator in the evaluation of the Java-Bali PPKM level. We are currently harmonizing the data, so we hope that next week we can announce it again," said Luhut Pandjaitan at a press conference, Monday, August 16.
The indicator of death since last week has not been announced. The goal is to improve data so that accuracy is maintained.
“For example, on August 10, there was one city where the death rate jumped many times where the death rate came from the July period and the previous month. Cases like this are found in other districts. In the next one, two weeks, data and report improvements will be completed so that the mortality indicator is re-entered in the PPKM assessment level with better accuracy," Luhut continued.
