The President of the Indonesian Red Cross (PMI), Jusuf Kalla, who served as the former vice president of Indonesia, predicted that in April 2021, the number of positive confirmed cases of the new crown in Indonesia will reach 2 million.
Yusuf said today (2/8): “If the current situation continues to develop, strict epidemic prevention measures are not taken, and the vital new crown vaccination work is not emphasized, then in April 2021, the new crown in Indonesia will be diagnosed. The number of cases will accumulate to 2 million."
Yousef said that it took about 10 months for Indonesia to reach 1 million positive confirmed cases of new crown. But now, Indonesia may be able to reach 2 million cases in just three months.
Yusuf mentioned that the current rate of new crown testing is still very low. For example, the number of new crown diagnoses announced every Monday is very small, not because the number of people infected is small. It is because the proportion of people tested for COVID-19 on weekends is very low, which caused a rapid increase in new cases of COVID-19 on and after Tuesday.
"The daily increase in the number of new crown cases from Sunday to Monday is very low, because there are very few people undergoing new crown testing on Sundays, so the number of new cases announced on Monday also decreases, but Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday It may reach about 14,000 new cases per day. It will take 10 months to reach 1 million cases, but it currently takes only 3 months to reach 1 million cases (total 2 million cases)."
Yusuf Kara said that if 2021 The cumulative number of cases reached 2 million in April of 2004, which will bring great difficulty to the handling of the new crown epidemic, and will firstly cause a serious burden on the hospital.
