KULON PROGO - The COVID-19 Task Force in Kulon Progo Regency, Yogyakarta Special Region, in early 2022, noted that a new cluster was found. The cluster came from a wedding ceremony in Karangsari, Pengasih District, because at least 13 residents confirmed positive for COVID-19.

The spokesperson for the Kulon Progo COVID-19 Task Force, Baning Rahayujati, said that after the wedding ceremony in Karangsari Village, a resident was sick, and the antigen test was positive.

"From there, in the end, we found that there were 13 positive residents, namely 12 positive antigen tests, and one positive swab test result from 52 people who were traced. Today, we are still waiting for the results of the swab test from BBVet Wates. We are still waiting for 36 of them. The results of the BBVet Wates have not yet been released", Baning said, quoted by Antara on Monday, January 31.

This incident is suspected to be from the family of the bridal group who came from West Java. The group that arrived were already sick, while the bride and groom had negative antigen tests but were exposed to them in the end.

"From this, it extended to the family, to Sendangsari and Margosari, and also to one of the officials in Kulon Progo who was in contact with those who came to the wedding", he said.

Based on data from the Kulon Progo Health Office, in the last four days, daily cases of COVID-19 increased sharply with the presence of this bridal cluster. In four days, the addition of COVID-19 cases increased by 22 cases.

"We urge the public to strictly adhere to health protocols, don't let their guard down", he appealed.
