As with a number of countries around the globe, Indonesia is currently experiencing a spike in the number of Corona Virus Disease 2019 ("COVID-19") cases. In response, The Director-General of Disease Prevention and Control at the Ministry of Health ("Director-General") has decided to introduce various measures aimed at increasing awareness of the COVID-19 spike through the issuance of Circular No. HK.02.02/C/4815/2023 of 2023 ("Circular 4815/2023"), which has been in force since 11 December 2023.
