TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - The Jakarta Health Agency's Head of Disease Prevention and Control, Dwi Oktavia, reported 2,361 new confirmed cases of COVID-19 today, Jan. 18.

Dwi explained the additional cases were detected from the Polymerase Chain Reaction or PCR tests on 10,012 people. “From the results, 2,361 tested positive, and 7,651 came back negative,” she said in a written statement.

Thus, Jakarta has recorded 229,726 cases since the first case was found in March. There are also 21,200 active cases in isolation as of date.

Of the city’s tally, 204,711 people have recovered with the healing rate of 89.1 percent. The death rate related to the coronavirus disease, meanwhile, hits 1.7 percent as 3,815 people died. “Indonesia's death rate is 2.9 percent,” Dwi added.

Throughout last week, the Jakarta Health Agency recorded the city’s positivity rate was 17.9 percent, while it was 9.6 percent in total. However, the figure still exceeded the World Health Organization (WHO) standard at no more than 5 percent.

Dwi went on to explain that Jakarta’s total COVID-19 PCR tests per one million population reached 225,910 as of today. Meanwhile, the number of PCR tests last week hit 108,681.
