The Pandemy of Covid-19 Cases After One Year in Indonesia.

Today, the Covid-19 pandemic has been going on for a year, since the first case was announced by President Joko Widodo on March 2, 2020. at the time, the first positive cases of Covid-19 in Indonesia  were two mothers and their daughters, residents of Depok, West Java, who were infected by Japanese citizens. 

Since then, the infection of the Covid-19 case in the country has continued to spread. Statistically, Covid-19 Cases in Indonesia currently have jumped over 1 million. Wikipedia reported 1,341,314 people are infected with Covid-19 in Indonesia by 1 March, 2021.  The latest Covid-19 data on March 1, 2021, increased by 6,680 cases. So that the positive accumulation of Covid-19 is currently more than 1.3 million cases or as many as 1,341,314 cases. 

What has Indonesia done to control the transmission of the SARS-CoV-2 corona virus in the past year? In the first time, accompanied by Terawan Agus Putranto who was then Minister of Health, President Joko Widodo on Monday (2/3/2020) morning announced the first case of Covid-19 at the Jakarta Presidential Palace.President Joko Widodo has announced that  two people in Indonesia had tested positive for the corona virus. The government through the Ministry of Health then conducts a search. The cases had been traced through the contact from a Japanese leaving from Depok,Indonesia detected positive for the corona virus in Malaysia. 

As the immediate step, President Joko Widodo formed the Covid-19 task force and emphasized that it had been formed by the government as the only source of reference for information for the public. This is to prevent confusion of information. The Task Force was formed through Presidential Decree Number 7 of 2020 concerning the Task Force for the Acceleration of Handling of Corona Virus Disease 2019 which was signed by Jokowi on Friday (13/3/2020).

In the wake of the pandemic Covid-19,the government of Indonesia has set the New Normal. The
New normal or new normality is a term that refers to a new lifestyle in a new type of Corona virus pandemic situation. The new lifestyle means that the community applies  3 M as health protocols in the form of diligently washing hands with soap, always wearing a mask, always keeping a distance, so as to avoid the crowd to avoid COVID-19.

Guidelines for working in new normal situations are contained in Decree of the Minister of Health No. HK.01.07 / MENKES / 328/2020 concerning COVID-19 Prevention and Control Guidelines in Office and Industrial Workplaces in Supporting Business Sustainability in Pandemic Situations. Thus, the new normal goal is to support the business sector. 

One of the Government's strategies in suppressing the spread of Covid-19 is to establish a Large-Scale Social Restriction (PSBB) policy.These restrictions include school and work vacations, restrictions on religious activities, restrictions on activities in public places or facilities, restrictions on socio-cultural activities, restrictions on transportation modes, and restrictions on other activities specifically related to defense and security aspects.

The government have pursued three main pillars in preventing the spread of Covid-19. The first is the participation of the community in implementing 3M (wearing masks, maintaining distance and washing hands), then the role of the government in implementing 3T (Testing, Tracing,Treatment). The last is to bridge between the government and the community by the vaccination program.
