WHO Representative Asserts Indonesia's Zero Coronavirus Case

12 February 2020 12:36 WIB

TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - The World Health Organization (WHO) representative to Indonesia  Dr. Navaratnasamy Paranietharan during his visit today at the University of Indonesia’s Faculty of Public Health (FKM UI) said that Indonesia is well-prepared to respond to cases of coronavirus. He also added that there have yet been records of the coronavirus entering Indonesia. 

Paranietharan said the WHO does not come to conclusions only based on predictions and model but will wait for evidence of coronavirus transmittal cases, which is currently unavailable in Indonesia. He also said that the Indonesian government’s preparation and prevention plans are commendable. 

During the event, he also strongly denies that there are doubts against Indonesia’s ability to detect coronaviruses. “This means that we believe and are confident with Indonesia’s medical capacity to handle the treatments and the detection of the virus.”

He said that Indonesia has had the capacity to detect the novel coronavirus or 2019-nCoV since January 14, 2020, via PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) which is genomic sequencing equipment. Using this, he claims results from lab tests on possible coronavirus cases can be obtained in two days.
