The COVID-19 pandemic was first confirmed to have spread to Indonesia early March 2020 in Depok regent, near Jakarta. So far, Indonesia has recorded more than 12 thousand cases, the second highest in Southeast Asia, behind only Singapore. The Corona Virus or Covid-19 attacks anyone, young or old people, male or female, anyone who lives in the city or even in the village.
Up to now, there is no one got infected in Cibening village. But government asked to governors or mayors to apply the PSBB (Pembatasan Sosial Berskala Besar or Large-Scale Social Restriction) to their areas to stop the outbreaks. Government asked people to stay home; they should work & study from home and worship also at home.
People should wear mouth & nose coverings or masks made of cloth or the like. This is to avoid sparks from falling mouths and sticking to surrounding objects. To wash hands often & avoid to touch face (nose, eyes or mouth) and close mouth when coughing or sneezing. To keep social distance (about 2 meters) and avoid crowds is also necessary if possible also limit the use of public transportation.
If the sick person is not treated at the hospital, the family or the neighbors should help him/her to carry out quarantine or independent isolation at home or in the room. Help them to meet their food needs or family logistical needs, because as long as they are sick, they cannot work and take care of themselves.
For the healthy ones, should be protected not to get sick, because this is also the key to success in preventing transmission of the virus. By doing “Keep Distance” it is expected that the spread and transmission will be immediately interrupted. Everyone will return to their normal activities.
