“(During the PSBB) but it was more about interactions in Jakarta,” said Anies.

It is known, the PSBB will be implemented again starting September 14, 2020.

Anies said this decision was taken by considering a number of factors, namely the availability of hospital beds that were almost full and the high mortality rate.

“In a meeting of the task force to accelerate the control of Covid-19 in Jakarta, it was concluded that we will pull the emergency brake, which means that we are forced to re-implement large-scale social restrictions like in the early days of the pandemic,” said Anies, Wednesday (9/9/2020) .

According to Anies, this decision also followed President Joko Widodo’s rule, asking that health be prioritized.

With the implementation of this PSBB, it is certain that various activities will be restricted again, namely office activities, businesses, transportation, to public facilities.
