up and down 82 Posted September 8, 2020 #3726 Share Posted September 8, 2020 https://www.aa.com.tr/en/asia-pacific/at-least-100-doctors-die-of-coronavirus-in-indonesia/1958600# At least 100 doctors die of coronavirus in Indonesia Fatalities among doctors increase significantly over last 2 months, according to doctors union JAKARTA, Indonesia At least 100 Indonesian doctors have died of the novel coronavirus since the pandemic started in March, a doctors association said on Monday. "There have been 100 doctors who died while handling COVID-19. Likewise, the number of other health workers who have died also climbed,” Daeng Faqih, chairman of Indonesian Doctors Association (IDI), said in a statement. Speaking to Anadolu Agency, Halik Malik, the association spokesman, said the number of doctors who have died increased significantly over the last two months. As of Aug. 4, the doctors association recorded deaths of 74 doctors, and the number climbed by 26 over the last 27 days. He said the actual number could be higher than the recorded as not all of the fatalities were reported to the association. The association urged authorities to release official numbers so it can carry out a more comprehensive analysis of risk factors and preventive measures. The case-by-case analysis conducted by the association showed that not all of health facilities in the country are ready to impose strict protocols. Noting that periodic examinations of health workers have not been consistently conducted, Halik said hospitals were overwhelmed by the rising number of infections and fatalities among health workers. “The infected staffs have to be in isolation and the healthy ones are exhausted from working overtime,” he added. Meanwhile, the number of cases and the occupancy rate of isolation rooms in the country continued to grow. Indonesia confirmed 2,743 new infections on Monday, pushing the nationwide tally to 174,796. The country has reported 7,417 fatalities so far, while recoveries reached 125,959. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rybak 2,672 Posted September 8, 2020 #3727 Share Posted September 8, 2020 Out of nowhere we have 300-400 cases in these days instead 800-900 as it was in August... Head of Ministry of Health changed "strategy of fight with virus" and now only people with symptoms will be testes instead everyone who are in quarantine. Additionaly quarantine is shortned from 14 days to 10 and after those 10 days people can leave their houses even without making tests... I dont think that it is good way...

(Photo: IKATAN DOKTER INDONESIA/via REUTERS) JAKARTA: Photographs of a grieving wife bent over the coffin of her dead husband, an Indonesian medical doctor, have drawn attention to the high death toll of healthcare workers in the Southeast Asian nation. The photographs, taken at Wahidin Sudirohusodo hospital in Makassar, South Sulawesi, on Thursday (Aug 27) morning, and shared with Reuters by Indonesia's Medical Association (IDI), have been widely shared on social media. They show a woman, whose face is barely visible, dressed in a pink hazmat suit, gloves, and turquoise mask, alone as she rests her head on a white coffin. The Indonesian medical association said the woman's husband, Dr Titus Taba, who was head of the IDI in West Papua, was the 94th Indonesian doctor to die from COVID-19, the respiratory disease caused by the novel coronavirus. Halik Malik, spokesman for the association, said that the limited amount of protective equipment, isolation rooms and low screening of patients, had led to a high fatality rate among doctors. "The number of doctors dying in Indonesia is still relatively high, even increasing in the past two months," he said. Indonesia is grappling with one of the worst outbreaks of the virus in the region. In India, a country with more than three times the population and more than 3 million cases, almost 200 doctors have died from COVID-19, the Indian Medical Association told local media in early August. Indonesia reported its biggest daily increase of coronavirus infections on Thursday, with 2,719 new cases. It has recorded 162,884 coronavirus cases and 7,064 deaths, the highest death toll in Southeast Asia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Griff88 1,729 Posted September 10, 2020 #3730 Share Posted September 10, 2020 It took 1.5 months for Jakarta's government to realize that "partially opening" the city is a bad idea. An average of 1000 cases a day for the last 2 weeks and starting Monday we will go back to the strict measures like the one before June. Time to get a haircut again before regretting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
