Mataram - The government has removed the requirements for PCR swab tests and COVID-19 antigens for domestic travellers. However, the Mataram City COVID-19 Handling Task Force, West Nusa Tenggara (NTB), emphasized that the PeduliLindung application would still be applied to every guest who came as an effort to prevent the spread of COVID-19.

"Although the requirements for the PCR swab test and COVID-19 antigen for domestic travelers have been removed, the health protocols (prokes) and the PeduliLindung application must still be implemented," said Mataram City COVID-19 Task Force spokesman I Nyoman Swandiasa in Mataram, Tuesday, March 8. quoted from Antara.

The statement was made in response to the government's policy to abolish the requirements for PCR swab tests and COVID-19 antigens for domestic travellers, either through land, sea or air transportation.

Furthermore, Swandiasa said, although the requirements for the PCR swab test and the COVID-19 antigen were removed, there were other conditions that had to be met, namely having carried out the COVID-19 vaccine up to the second dose.

For this reason, by activating the PeduliLindung application, business actors have indirectly monitored the spread of COVID-19.

In the PeduliLindung application, there is already vaccine data and health records of guests or visitors whether they are in quarantine or isolation due to exposure to COVID-19.

"Thus, we can carry out early detection of guests or visitors who come to one place," said the man who also serves as Head of the Mataram City Communication and Information Office (Diskominfo).

In addition to shopping centers and hotels, the PeduliLindung application is also activated in office environments, both government and private offices.

"This is because the task force continues to adhere to existing regulations, and as long as the status of the COVID-19 pandemic is revoked, the process must continue to be enforced," he said.
