MEDAN - Mayor of Medan, North Sumatra, Bobby Nasution asked the COVID-19 referral hospital in his area to add beds for COVID-19 patients.
"Our total BOR (bed occupancy rate) has increased from 37 percent to 50.01 percent in the last few days", said Bobby Nasution in Medan, North Sumatra, quoted by Antara, Thursday, July 15.
President Joko Widodo's son-in-law admitted that he still found hospitals with BOR availability not yet 30 percent, but some hospitals closed beds for COVID-19 patients.
In fact, continued Bobby Nasution, according to the rules, hospital BOR must be 30 percent of the number of beds to anticipate a surge in patients exposed to COVID-19.
