JAKARTA - Spokesperson for the COVID-19 Handling Task Force WIku Adisasmito said the development of the COVID-19 case had recovered for the previous 3 weeks, consecutively experiencing a slowdown. In fact, this week, the percentage increase in cases recovered is still slowing down.

"It is very unfortunate that this week the recovery rate is still declining, so this week is the fourth week with a decrease in successive recovery," Wiku said in the Presidential Secretariat Youtube broadcast, Tuesday, November 17.

According to Wiku, the number of recoveries this week has slowed down by 9.3 percent or almost reached 10 percent. This figure is even greater than the previous week.

"This is a worrying condition. We should continue to maintain the number of cures so that it continues to increase," said Wiku.

There are five provinces, continued Wiku, that have contributed the highest to the slowdown in recovered COVID-19 cases this week.

First, the weekly increase in cases recovered from West Sumatra fell by 1,377, Aceh decreased by 810, Riau decreased by 660, Banten decreased by 521, and Central Java decreased by 342.

Meanwhile, the lowest percentage of recovery at the national level was Papua at 51.50 percent, Lampung 51.97 percent, Jambi 68.23 percent, Central Sulawesi 70.8 percent, and West Sulawesi 72.62 percent.

"I advise all provinces, especially those mentioned, to really improve the quality of handling COVID-19. Make this moment an opportunity to increase the recovery rate and reduce the death rate," he concluded.
