Coronavirus latest: Jakarta to reimpose lockdown; India reports record daily jump of 95,735 cases

The large-scale social restrictions will be reinstated on Monday amid soaring Covid-19 infections in the Indonesian capital

Indonesia’s capital Jakarta will reinstate large-scale social restrictions beginning on Monday due to a resurgence in coronavirus infections, its governor said on Wednesday.

After first imposing the restrictions in early April, Jakarta gradually eased the measures starting in June as it managed to flatten the curve of new coronavirus cases. More recently, however, the emergence of new cases has seen a rapid increase.

Jakarta governor Anies Baswedan told a virtual press conference, “We have no other choice except immediately pulling the emergency brake” because the fatality rate and bed occupancy rate for new coronavirus patients keep going up, bringing the capital into an “emergency situation.”

“We will be back to the early days of the pandemic – working from home, studying from home and performing religious activities at home,” he added.

According to Baswedan, about 77 per cent of the hospital beds available for Covid-19 patients with moderate symptoms are occupied, with the limit expected to be reached by September 17 at current capacity levels.

Under the tightened restrictions, many socioeconomic activities outside the scope of essential services must be halted again, forcing some entertainment parks and shopping malls that have been operating under special conditions since June to be closed.

“Restaurants can only provide delivery service and are not allowed to give dine-in service,” Baswedan said.

The old weak and sickly has to go there's no stopping it. It's just like a seasonal flu in fact this year COVID is not as deadly compared to other years it's way over hyped by media and the authorities.

Look at Sweden, Europe and US etc the 'curve' is already down. It's already dying down by itself. We're 'lucky' ours is tightening the grip instead lol...............

*Btw you can use either the app or the token. The token was designed for people who do not want to install the TraceTogether app, or are not comfortable using a smartphone.


If it is not mandatory to bring my TraceTogether Token out, will I be charged/fined if I forget to bring it out?

No. However, we strongly encourage you to bring the TraceTogether Token with you wherever you go, to protect you and the people around you.

The only reason why he sounds like me is because he's describing the reality of Covid-19 which is what I have been doing since the start of this mess.

The PCR test, the most widely used diagnostic test for coronavirus in the United States, usually take 37 or 40 cycles, but experts say this is too high because it detects very small amounts of the virus that do not pose a risk.

How many cycles does the Singapore testing regimen use?

The whole idea is to Jack up the numbers so this mayhem will never end.
