JAKARTA - Spokesperson for the COVID-19 Task Force, Wiku Adisasmito, asked other regions to take the case of the emergence of the COVID-19 cluster in Central Java as a lesson for the implementation of PTM (face-to-face learning).
"Various positive cases of COVID-19 that occurred to students in various regions must be used as important lessons for other regions so that similar cases do not recur and PTM can be carried out safely", said Wiku in a virtual press conference, Thursday, September 23.
Wiku asked each education unit to keep PTM limited by implementing strict health protocols. In this way, the transmission of COVID-19 can be prevented.
"I ask the education unit to be able to carry out face-to-face learning carefully and always prioritize the health and students of COVID-19 transmission", said Wiku.
"In addition, pay attention to the possibility of transmission at home, travel, or during teaching and learning activities. Make sure students and teaching staff adhere to health protocols in a disciplined manner", he continued.
