Indonesia Enters COVID-19 Transition Stage from Pandemic to Endemic

The Minister of Home Affairs has issued Directive No. 53 of 2022 on the Prevention and Mitigation of Corona Virus Disease 2019 ("COVID-19") During the Transition Period to Endemic ("Directive 53/2022"), which, at the time of its signing, halted the implementation of Indonesia’s ongoing policy of Enforced Community Activity Restrictions (Pemberlakuan Pembatasan Kegiatan Masyarakat – "PPKM"). However, the government is keen to stress that the discontinuation of the PPKM regime is not meant as a declaration of the end of the COVID-19 Pandemic, as such a declaration can only be issued by the World Health Organization.
In order to control the spread of COVID-19 and prevent any potential spike in the number of cases, the government recognizes the need to transition to an endemic phase through the application of a proactive, persuasive, focused and coordinated strategy. The three major steps that are involved in the transition stage, as set by the government, break down as follows: 1) Health protocols (e.g. the correct use of masks, proper sanitation, utilization of the PeduliLindungi application, etc.); 2) Surveillance (e.g. COVID-19 testing and COVID-19-related education); 3) Vaccination (i.e. encouraging citizens to seek out primary and booster doses of vaccine); and 4) Public communication (i.e. optimization of all media in an effort to maximize communication, information, and education).
Directive 53/2022 has been in force since 30 December 2022.
