Joko added that from a total of 186 beds available at RSUD Dr. Harjono Ponorogo. A total of 32 beds are filled specifically for DHF patients.
“Yesterday there were 39 patients, on the 13th there was a decline. Some went home and one person died,” added Joko.
Public Relations of Aisyah Hospital, Muhammad Arbain said the same thing. There was a sharp spike in the number of DHF patients in its place. Currently there are 23 patients being treated, even 3 of them are still children.
