JAKARTA - The spread of the COVID-19 outbreak in Indonesia is currently under the government's attention, even though the number of patients who have recovered is quite a lot. However, this must be watched out for. For this reason, the government released the 10 Safe Houses application.

This application is also developed by the Presidential Staff Office (KSP) which is supported by the Ministry of Communication and Information (Kominfo) as an effort to support the physical distancing activities of the Indonesian people. As is known to break the chain of the COVID-19 outbreak, the Government has appealed to the public to carry out learning, work and worship activities at home.

Minister of Communication and Informatics (Menkominfo) Johnny G. Plate said the 10 Safe Houses application which was recently launched was an application based on Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology. This application can help the community prevent the spread of the COVID-19 virus based on mutual cooperation.

"People can measure their own body temperature, check their health independently and monitor which areas or communities have the potential to spread COVID-19, through monitoring body temperature in order to avoid these areas," said the Minister of Communication and Information, Johnny via a video teleconference with the Head of the Presidential Staff Office ( KSP) Moeldoko as gathered by the VOI team.

The Minister of Communication and Information explained that through cell phones, the 10 Rumah Aman application can connect map-based data to the surrounding environment, and also connect to social media platforms.

"This application also wants to ensure that the entire community remains at home, working, studying, and worshiping at home, reminding each other and keeping each other in good health by maintaining a safe distance," continued Johnny.

Stay tuned, the 10 Safe Houses application is a complement to the previously launched application of the Ministry of Communication and Information, namely PeduliL Protects. For that, let's discuss how the excellent features are embedded in the 10 Safe Homes application.

1 Features of Measuring Body Temperature

Users can measure body temperature for themselves and all residents of the house every day. Then remind neighbors about their condition and health via telephone or instant message applications, so that several households are always monitored for their health condition. Furthermore, each occupant of the house monitors each other's neighbors around him.

2. Sharing Information on Healthy Lifestyle

If you download this application, you will get inspiration about a healthy lifestyle, namely by always washing your hands with soap or hand sanitizer made from alcohol, maintaining a safe distance when meeting other people and sharing those tips in the 10 Safe Houses application.

3. Sharing cooking inspiration

With this feature, you can invite people to cook, eat at home and share. Every family can cook and eat at home. Sharing the results of cooking can also be via this application. The function of the 10 Safe Home application is also similar to social media, but if you want to connect with your friend, he or she must also download this application.

4. Checking Your Own Health

Even though it is necessary to go to a doctor or hospital, it is better if in a situation like this, you can do an independent examination using an Artificial Intelligence (AI) based diagnostic tool. The goal is not to rush to see health workers at the hospital while at the same time applying the spirit of helping and lightening the work of health workers.

5. Monitoring the Spread of COVID-19

In this 10 Safe Houses application, you can view and monitor the distribution map of each individual who has a normal temperature or a temperature above normal. In addition, it helps monitor individuals who have carried out self-isolation and are in care to avoid exposure to COVID-19.
