March 19, 2020 7:35 PM
JAKARTA: Faced by a rising death toll from coronavirus and a big jump in infections, Indonesia’s president on Thursday called for testing to be stepped up immediately in the world’s fourth most populous country.
Less than three weeks since the country of more than 260 million announced its first case of the virus, its death toll had reached 25 — higher than in any other Southeast Asian country.
The number of infections in Indonesia jumped by 82 to 309, which together with daily rises of 110 in Malaysia and 60 in Thailand sent the number of reported infections across Southeast Asia to nearly 2,200...
Indonesia sees biggest daily jump in cases with 82 new infections
Indonesia yesterday reported 82 new coronavirus cases, its biggest daily increase, as President Joko Widodo expressed regret that many in the capital have shrugged off social distancing measures.
The total confirmed infections now stand at 309, said government spokesman on Covid-19 management Achmad Yurianto. He added that the number of deaths rose by six to 25, most of which were in Jakarta. Provinces such as West Java, East Java and the Riau Islands also reported new cases.
Mr Joko and his wife, First Lady Iriana, also announced yesterday that they tested negative for the coronavirus, after Transportation Minister Budi Karya Sumadi was confirmed last week to have been infected.
The rise in fatalities from the coronavirus comes as Mr Joko said the country's social distancing measures have not been taken seriously by many Jakarta residents.
"The study-at-home, work-from-home, do-prayer-at-home measures should not be seen as an opportunity to go on holidays," Mr Joko said yesterday before meeting ministers to tackle the Covid-19 pandemic.
The measures, announced last Saturday, saw the Jakarta provincial government close all schools in the city of more than 10 million people for two weeks.
JAKARTA - Indonesia has estimated that the number of people who have had possible contact with Covid-19 suspects to be at more than half a million, the authorities said on Friday (March 20), as the government started rapid testing for the virus on its population.
This “high risk” group of between 600,000 and 700,000 people are scattered across the country, with South Jakarta being the worst-hit, the authorities said.
Earlier President Joko Widodo in a statement broadcast live on national television had said Indonesia started rapid testing for the virus on Friday afternoon, .
