Title : Hospitals, cemeteries overwhelmed as Jakarta faces new spike in COVID-19 cases
By : Ardila Syakriah
[... On Dec. 28, the number reached a record-high 101 burials. Daily cases in the city had been hitting the four digits since early December, at least four times reaching over 2,000 per day. Positivity rates, meaning the share of tests that came back positive and which should ideally be at below 5 percent per the World Health Organization (WHO), have ranged between 10 and 17 percent since mid-December. High positivity rates, according to experts, are a sign of insufficient testing and wide transmission of the virus...
The Indonesian Hospital Association's (PERSI) Jakarta chapter chairman, Koesmedi Priharto, said hospitals had seen increasing bed occupancy rates. He said that the city administration could easily add more beds, but ensuring there would be enough medical workers was "impossible"...
Jakarta's real-time data as of Saturday showed that of 361 intensive care unit (ICU) beds with ventilators for COVID-19 patients, 266 of them of negative pressure, only 53 beds were left--an 85.3% occupancy rate... state-run Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital (RSCM), had 146 of its 192 beds for COVID-19 occupied on Saturday, while there were still patients in the emergency room waiting to be admitted to the wards, the hospital's spokesperson Sumariyono said. He said that the occupancy rate for adult ICUs was at 95% ...

So besides full hospitals , and a expected surge in infected people after this new year holidays , we are here in high risk to die if infected . Statists from May showed fatality rate of 15% for people less than 45 y.o. , fatality rate of 40% for people between 46 and 59 , and fatality rate of 45% for people older than 60 (according to https://www.thejakartapost.com/news/...ostviewed&pg=/).Last edited by marcus; 1 week ago.Comment
