"Hajj pilgrims who have finished carrying out the Armuzna procession, we urge them to rest in hotels for one to two days so that they are tired of reducing and refilling energy," said Head of the Hajj Center of the Ministry of Health, Liliek Marhaendro Susilo, Monday, July 3, as reported by Antara.

Liliek said that the implementation of Hajj health in Armuzna had been running smoothly with several obstacles in service being overcome.
"We will also evaluate this year's implementation so that it can serve as a lesson to improve the quality of the implementation of hajj health next year," he said.
He explained that the Hajj procession in Armuzna drained the energy of the Hajj participants. Therefore, his staff is ready to anticipate the health condition after the Armuzna procession.
He also reminded the Hajj participants to often drink by not waiting for thirst first.
If you want to do activities outside the hotel, he said, always wear personal protective equipment, such as masks, sunglasses, hats, and umbrellas.
"It is important for pilgrims to continue to eat food on time and once a day to consume oralites," said Liliek.
