In response to this case,  President Joko Widodo asked Indonesian people to keep calm in facing corona virus transmission in Indonesia.

Then,  no one  uses an infusion and they can take care by themselves,” said President Joko Widodo.

Moreover, Achmad Yurianto also explained the latest data recorded that there are 13 patients infected corona which eventualy increases to 19 cases in Indonesia.  He also said they are all in stable condition. Besides being infected from overseas traveling,  the cases also come from the investigation of case cluster 1 and sub cluster 3 which was also infected from the  case 1. They are now in isolated rooms at hospitals in Jakarta and outside Jakarta. Therefore, Indonesian government  does not reveal the isolated places  for the victims infected from Corona virus.
