The Minister of Health stated that this step was one of the stages towards endemic. in addition, he revealed the two main factors that were taken into consideration in the repeal of the PPKM, namely the results of the Sero.
"The first is that the level of public immunity is already high, as stated by the President, in December the sero survey results were at the level of 87.8 percent, now it is 98.5 percent," Budi said.
"The second thing that is important is why the government finally reduced intervention in this PPKM, because before there was no medical intervention, during the first pandemic we were still confused about how to deal with Covid-19, in the end we used non-medical interventions, we limited the movement first so as to reduce transmission," he said.
