According to the Minister of Tourism and Creative Economy, Sandiaga Uno, on Weekly Press Briefing, Monday (10/18) afternoon said yesterday, the Delta variant, and the previous one not from tourism, so tourism has never been a trigger for a pandemic, but don’t let tourism become a trigger this time.
“The emergence of the third wave of COVID-19 is a necessity. However, the readiness of health protocols in tourist destinations is the key to anticipating the third wave. So, friends in tourism, don’t be euphoric, apply strict health protocols,” he said.
He explained that the number of COVID-19 cases in Indonesia had so far been declining. So I asked the tourism sector to keep it that way.
