JAKARTA - A staff working at the DKI DPRD Building has tested positive for COVID-19. As a result, the DPRD canceled the agenda for the meeting which was supposed to take place on Tuesday, July 14. The canceled agenda was the DKI Jakarta DPRD Commission D meeting with the DKI Jakarta Public Housing and Settlement Service to discuss the 0 rupiah DP housing program.
Secretary of Commission D DPRD DKI Syarif said, the old building of the DKI DPRD will be closed for several days because it is being sterilized using disinfectant liquid. This building contains a meeting room for DPRD commissions. Meanwhile, the faction room was in a separate building.
"The meeting at Commission D was canceled. Because yesterday afternoon until today there was spraying and tracing for 3 to 4 days and it was temporarily closed," said Syarif at the DPRD DKI Building, Jalan Kebon Sirih, Central Jakarta, Tuesday, July 14.
"I'm afraid that when he enters (work), then there will be droplets or other things so that there is a potential for transmission, right? That's why sprayed first," he continued.
In addition, Acting Secretary of the DPRD DPRD Council (Sekwan) Hadameon Aritonang explained that all staff at the DPRD had a rapid test examination some time ago.
Rapid tests are carried out on all employees including Individual Other Service Providers (PJLP) and internal security (pamdal). This test is carried out every 3 weeks, with the number of tests reaching 40 people.
From this rapid test, there were 6 Pamdal people who were reactive to COVID-19. Then, the six people underwent a swab test and one person tested positive. Meanwhile, 5 other people tested negative.
"One person in the protocol has been treated at Mitra Kemayoran Hospital. Then, we asked the Pamdal to be reactive but negative to be at home first," Hadameon explained.
Apart from staff, COVID-19 checks are also carried out for all DPRD Members. During the rapid test, all members of the Kebon Sirih parliament were declared non-reactive to COVID-19.
