BABEL - There are six active COVID-19 patients undergoing isolation in the Province of the Bangka Belitung Islands (Babel). Meanwhile, other districts and cities in Babylon have no cases of COVID-19 transmission.

"Today, the number of recovered patients has increased by one, so that the number of active COVID-19 patients has decreased to six," said Secretary of the Babel Islands Province COVID-19 Handling Task Force Micron Antariksa in Pangkalpinang, quoted from Antara, Friday, June 17.

Based on the latest daily COVID-19 case data, six COVID-19 patients who are still undergoing self-isolation are only found in Belitung Regency, while the cities of Pangkalpinang, Bangka, Central Bangka, West Bangka, South Bangka and East Belitung have no COVID-19 patients.

"In the past week, COVID-19 cases have increased again in Belitung, while other regencies/cities are still nil," he said.

He said that even though the number of COVID-19 cases had decreased, residents should not ignore the pandemic.

Those who have not been vaccinated must immediately go to a facility that provides vaccines in an effort to build communal immunity from transmission of the virus and its variants.

"Ignoring and trivializing will hamper our joint efforts and are not in line with government policies in liberating this area from COVID-19," he said.

He added that the easing of wearing masks indicated that the handling of COVID-19 in Indonesia was going well.

"We welcome the government's policy of loosening the wearing of masks outdoors, because it has been more than two years that we have implemented restrictions and restrictions in the community," he said.
