Up to 9,000 passengers at an airport in Medan may have been tested with the reused swab sticks, say police. State-owned company Kimia Farma is now reportedly facing a potential lawsuit launched on behalf of the travellers. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-56990253 Page 1 of 3 Covid: Reused nose swab scam busted in Indonesia airport - BBC News 5/6/21, 16:22 Covid nasal swab testing has become routine in many countries hit by the global pandemic. Police said they believed the scam had been happening since last December at Kualanamu airport in Medan, North Sumatra. Passengers are required to have a negative test if they want to fly, and the airport offers the option of getting the swabs done on site. Airport authorities had used antigen rapid test kits supplied by Kimia Farma. Following complaints from passengers that they had received false positive test results, police sent an undercover officer to pose as a passenger last week, reported local news outlet Detik. When he was swabbed and received a positive test result, other officers swooped in and raided the test site, where they found a used test kit that had been recycled.

  • Situation Update Response to COVID-19 in Indonesia As of 12 October 2020
    Situation Update Response to COVID-19 in Indonesia As of 12 October 2020 As of 12 October, the Indonesian Government has announced 333,449 confirmed cases of COVID-19 in all 34 provinces of Indonesia, with 11,844 confirmed deaths from the virus, and 255,027 people that have recovered from the illness. The government has also reported 152,286 suspected cases. With a population of 260 million people, Indonesia currently has 376 laboratories with a combined testing capacity of 40,000 specimens per day. On the occasion of the commemoration of World Mental Health Day on 10 October, the Indonesian Clinical Psychologists Association announced that its members have treated 14,619 people between March and August 2020, with most common issues addressed linked to learning difficulties, anxiety, stress, mood disorders and depression. Meanwhile, a study conducted by the Indonesian Psychiatrists Association between April and August found that 57.6 percent of the study participants were having symptoms of depression. The psychological impact of COVID-19 is triggered by various factors including the unknown ending of the pandemic, unavailability of treatments and vaccine, social stigma, job losses, and changes in human interaction. The Food and Drug Monitoring Agency (BPOM) of Indonesia has issued the emergency use authorization of two antiviral drugs, namely favipiravir and remdesivir, to treat COVID-19 patients. The BPOM has also granted permits to several pharmaceutical companies to produce the drugs locally. in addition, by the end of 2020, the government expects to secure 670,000 vials of remdesivir from foreign sources. The requisites for the procurement and distribution of vaccines against COVID-19 have been stipulated through Presidential Regulation Number 99 of 2020, issued on 5 October 2020.
