ยท Based on the 8 additional cases discovered in Kabupaten Bangli linked to one returning PMI, the health authorities yesterday returned to Abuan village in Bangli with 1,210 rapid test kits to conduct comprehensive testing of residents in 4 surrounding locations.
The results:
o Banjar Serokadan: 335 positive out of 348 tests
o Banjar Tempek Selatan: 6 positive out of 500 tests
o Banjar Tempek Utara: 16 positive out of 276 tests
o At SD Abuan: 86 positive out of 86 tests
o Total: 443 positive out of 1,210 (37%)
They took swab tests for each of the positive results and are returning today with an additional 1,200 rapid test kits. They have limited the number of tests per day in order to minimize groups and possibly complicate the spread of the virus. The Bupati has quarantined the entire village, no entry in or out. They plan on conducting similar activities in Karangasem around the location of the other returning PMI who left quarantine and infected 4 others.

The first day rapid test conducted in Banjar Serokadan, Abuan Village, Bangli, successfully targeted 1200 manners, Thursday (30/4). From the data collected, rapid tests were carried out in four locations.
Ie, the Serokadan Office Banjar Office is 348 residents (335 reactive), South Tempek is 500 residents (6 reactive), North Tempek is 276 residents (16 reactive), and in SD 2 Abuan there are 86 residents (all are reactive). Thus, a total of 1,210 people conducted rapid tests with 766 non-reactive results and 443 reactive people.
The rapid test was also monitored directly by the Daily Chair of the Bali Province COVID-19 Task Force for the Acceleration of Handling, Dewa Made Indra. "Before I went home, there were already 1200s that were rapid tested. It turns out that reactive according to the rapid test number reached 400, "he said in a press statement at the Bali Office of Communication and Information, Thursday (30/4).
According to Dewa Indra, residents whose rapid test results were reactive immediately took swab specimens to be tested in the laboratory. This is to determine whether they are really positive COVID-19 or not.
Because, to state positive COVID-19, the final result used is the swab test. The rapid test will still continue on Friday (1/5) because the total number of targeted citizens actually reaches 2300 people.
"Because there are quite a lot of them, there are still a thousand more who have not, so the rapid test will be continued tomorrow," he added.
Dewa Indra added, positive citizens of COVID-19 according to the results of the swab test would be handled by the Bali Provincial Task Force. While the negative is handled by the district government.
Bangli Regent I Made Gianyar is said to have taken the decision to isolate Banjar Serokadan, Abuan Village starting Thursday. It means, Banjar is now closed or no one can go in and out there.
This is because in Banjar there are many reactive rapid test results. "Starting tomorrow, even a public kitchen will be prepared to provide consumption services to the people there to ensure there is no more movement of people in and out of Banjar Serokadan," he explained.
Dewa Indra called the decision to isolate the Banjar Serokadan permissible. That doesn't even need anyone's approval.
In addition to Bangli, continued Dewa Indra, rapid tests are also ongoing in the Padangkerta Environment, Karangasem. Meanwhile there are around 12 people who are reactive and will continue with swab specimen testing.
