TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - Thousands of state apparatus’ and non-government workers at the Depok City Hall on Monday, May 9, underwent mass antigen swab tests as a countermeasure against the spread of Covid-19 as state apparatuses officially start their first day of work following the Ramadan collective holiday.
