- The Coordinating Minister for Maritime Affairs and Investment, Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan, has emphasized that the government will continue to implement the Enforced Community Activity Restrictions (Pemberlakuan Pembatasan Kegiatan Masyarakat – "PPKM") that it has been applying in an effort to maintain its response to the global Corona Virus Disease 2019 ("COVID-19") pandemic.
- Mr. Pandjaitan has confirmed that the government will continue to monitor the development of the pandemic, particularly in the wake of the 2022 Eid holiday. In addition, the government is also urging businesses to continue to implement Work from Home (WFH) policies in order to reduce the risk of COVID-19 transmission.
- Overall, the level of COVID-19 infections across Indonesia is currently low. Daily confirmed cases have decreased significantly, while the number of confirmed cases was recently recorded at below 1,000 cases for 25 consecutive days and below 500 cases for 11 consecutive days. Hospitalization rates have also fallen by 97% from their Omicron-variant peak. Meanwhile, hospital bed occupancy rates have fallen to just 2%, while case fatalities have fallen by 98% from their Omicron-variant peak while the positive testing rate is currently well below 5% (specifically 0.7%).
- According to the level assessment carried out by the government until 7 May 2022, no districts or cities in Java and Bali are currently required to enforce Level-4 PPKM, while only one area is required to enforce Level-3 PPKM, specifically Pamekasan, due to its low level of vaccinations.
- In response to the decreasing trend in COVID-19 cases, the PPKM framework will continue to be gradually relaxed in stages by the government. In line with this goal, the government will also continue to accelerate its vaccination program, particularly second doses and follow-up or booster doses, and will continue to encourage the use of the PeduliLindungi application and facemasks in public places.
- The Coordinating Minister for Economic Affairs, Airlangga Hartarto, in his role as the PPKM coordinator for areas outside of Java and Bali, has revealed that COVID-19 cases in the areas under his purview also remain relatively under control. (SETKAB)
