CENTRAL LOMBOK - All prospective Hajj pilgrims (JCH) in Central Lombok are confirmed to be free of COVID-19. This is based on the results of the health examination and PCR swab tests that have been carried out by the local Health Office (Dinkes).

"The results of the PCR swab test were not positive for COVID-19," said Head of the Central Lombok Health Office, Suardi in Praya, West Nusa Tenggara (NTB) Province, quoted from Antara, Friday, June 24.

The examination of hundreds of Central Lombok JCHs was carried out in each of the puskesmas in the sub-district. This was done to facilitate services for pilgrims who will carry out the pilgrimage in the Holy Land of Mecca and Medina, Saudi Arabia.

"The condition of the pilgrims for Hajj in Central Lombok is currently in good health," he said.

Previously, the Ministry of Religion (Kemenag) of Central Lombok Regency stated that JCH in the local area would start departing on Friday, June 24, and Saturday, June 26, 2022.

"The departure of JCH from Central Lombok is divided into two flying groups (kloters)," said Head of Hajj and Umron Management at the Ministry of Religion, Central Lombok, L Asy'ari.

Before JCH departs for the Holy Land via Lombok International Airport, they will carry out a health check and a COVID-19-free PCR test the day before entering the Mataram Hajj Dormitory. After it was confirmed that they were healthy and free of COVID-19, then they were dispatched via the Lombok Airport Embarkation to the Jeddah Embarkation.

"They entered the hajj dormitory on June 24 and departed on June 25. Meanwhile, JCH, who entered the hajj dormitory on June 26, departed on June 27 via Lombok Airport embarkation," he said.

Meanwhile, the number of JCHs from Central Lombok who were dispatched included 334 companions. Where before there were 9 people who had entered the list to register for the 2022 hajj departure, but they did not think that they wanted to go together and there were two people who died.

"A total of 334 people departed," he added.
