Deputy Governor Klemen Tinal asked all members of No-Corona Papuan Youth (PAC) to socialize Covid-19 prevention in places of worship in addition to their respective villages.

This way is to prevent the transmission of the coronavirus in Papua

“This PAC does not go down to the bureaucratic environment, but in the environment of each village. But I hope PAC also goes to institutions such as churches, mosques, even if possible, to youth organizations and others. Because if this PAC can perform its duties and functions maximally with all elements of society, it is expected that the basic reproduction number (Ro) or the transmission power of the Covid-19 virus, which was 1.9, can decrease to 1 so that. That way Papua Province can prepare itself for a new normal,” he said.

Klemen made sure, immediately ordered the team to go down to the district / city to check the progress of Covid-19 handling.

Meanwhile, it has also asked the leaders of the Regional Apparatus Organization (OPD) in the Papua provincial government to descend on districts and cities in the red zone of covid-19 spread.

From the visit, it is expected that the district and city governments that visited also conveyed thoughts, suggestions and obstacles in the face of the Covid-19 pandemic, so that prevention and handling efforts in the future can be better.

"In the last three weeks, the transmission power of the Covid-19 is in the range of 1.9. That means, it's reached the culmination point or the highest point reached. So it is only how the power and efforts of all parties to bring down the pandemic case," he concluded.
