- The Indonesian Government has decided to re-extend the implementation of the Level-1, Level-2 and Level-3 Enforced Community Activity Restrictions (Pemberlakuan Pembatasan Kegiatan Masyarakat – "PPKM") that have been in force across the islands of Java and Bali in order to mitigate the effects of the ongoing Corona Virus Disease 2019 ("COVID-19") pandemic through the issuance of Directive of the Minister of Home Affairs ("Minister") No. 6 of 2022 ("Directive 6/2022"), which will be enforced between 1 February and 7 February 2022.
- In essence, Directive 6/2022 sets similar provisions on community activities restrictions as those originally addressed under Directive of the Minister No. 5 of 2022 and Directive of the Minister No. 1 of 2022. These community activities restrictions are summarized in the following edition of Daily Updates: “DKI Jakarta Returns to Level-2 PPKM”.
- Directive 6/2022 stipulates that determinations of regional PPKM levels should be made in line with the Adjustment Indicator for Public Health Efforts and Social Restrictions in Order to Combat the COVID-19 Pandemic determined by the Minister of Health ("Ministry of Health Indicator") and has now added the following total vaccination target achievement indicators in relation to dose two vaccinations and dose two vaccinations for seniors over 60 years of age: 1) Reduction in the district/city PPKM level from level 3 to level 2, if there has been a minimum total dose two vaccination achievement of at least 50% and dose two vaccination achievement for seniors over 60 years of age of at least 40%; 2) Reduction in the district/city PPKM level from level 2 to level 1 if there has been a minimum total dose two vaccination achievement of at least 70% and dose two vaccination achievement for seniors over 60 years of age of at least 60%.
- Furthermore, two weeks will be given in order to achieve the vaccination targets outlined above, on the condition that if the vaccination targets are not achieved within said two-week period, then the relevant regency/city PPKM levels will be adjusted based on the Ministry of Health Indicator and vaccination achievements in accordance with the provisions outlined above.
- Overall, the number of regencies/cities in Java and Bali which are currently enforcing Level-1 PPKM has decreased from 52 to 40. Meanwhile, the number of regencies/cities within Java and Bali which are currently enforcing Level-2 PPKM has increased from 75 to 86. Finally, the number of regencies/cities within Java and Bali which are currently enforcing Level-3 PPKM has increased from one regency/city to two regencies/cities. Moreover, all of the cities that lie within the province of DKI Jakarta are currently still enforcing Level-2 PPKM.
