JAKARTA - Minister of Health Budi Gunadi Sadikin has not confirmed the symptoms of high fever and red patches on the skin in a number of residents in DKI Jakarta due to the influence of the virus from mice.
"I have heard the information. We 'double check' again, because there are many stories related to it, but it is not necessarily true," he said after attending the Kick Off of the Change Source Facility for the Use of Domestic BBO and the Inauguration of the Medicine Raw Material Factory (BBO) at PT Kimia Farma Sungwun Pharmachopia Delta Silicone 1 Lippo Cikarang, Bekasi Regency, West Java, reported by Antara, Thursday, June 2
The Minister of Health said that all reports related to the incident were still being followed up by a number of related parties at the Ministry of Health and the DKI Jakarta Health Office.
"As reported by the mysterious hepatitis, it turns out that most of it is due to dengue, not because of that hepatitis (mysterious hepatitis)," said Budi Gunadi Sadikin.
Head of the South Jakarta Health Sub-department (Kasudin) Yudi Dimyati told reporters in Jakarta that eight residents of RT008 and RT010 Jalan Melati Satu, Cipete Selatan, Cilandak, South Jakarta, could not be categorized as sick because they were exposed to the virus carried by rats.
The statement was in accordance with the results of the examination of samples of rats trapped in local residents' homes taken by the Ministry of Health.
Eight people were reported to have a high fever and complained of red patches on the arms and legs in the near future.
