JAKARTA - Solo City is still experiencing an oxygen crisis for handling COVID-19 patients, following supply constraints from producers.
"Almost every night I continue to receive reports from hospitals, some only have two hours in stock and so on", said Head of the Surakarta City Health Service (DKK), Siti Wahyuningsih, in Solo, as reported by Antara, Thursday, July 15.
Related to this, her party has tried to coordinate with several parties to ensure the smooth transportation of oxygen.
"I have indeed coordinated with BPBD (Regional Disaster Management Agency), Police Resort, Transportation Service for transportation. We do not stay in the hospital and wait for delivery, but we take it to Kendal, to Semarang", she said.
The rapid movement was carried out to ensure patient safety. "It's a race against life", she said.

Meanwhile, related to the plan to establish an oxygen depot for the treatment of COVID-19 patients in Solo, the Chief Executive of the Surakarta City COVID-19 Task Force Daily, Ahyani, said that so far it had not been a problem.
"It could be at GOR Manahan, the 'indoor' section can be used, STP (Solo Technopark) can also be used, or choose a hospital with a large yard. So that's what needs to be taken, but the problem is there is no supply", he said
Previously, the Mayor of Solo, Gibran Rakabuming Raka, tried to ensure that the oxygen stock for handling COVID-19 patients in Solo was safe.
He noted that the daily demand for oxygen in the city of Solo reaches 59 tons. Given the high demand, he made sure Solo would not run out of oxygen stock.
"It always runs out (59 tons/day), but we keep it safe. Every day it is monitored continuously by the center, with Mr. Luhut (Emergency Restrictions on Community Activities (PPKM) Coordinator), and the Ministry of Health as well", he said.
