JAKARTA - The Covid-19 task force in Probolinggo, East Java has ordered dozens of people to get into a hearse containing a casket used for transporting Covid-19 patients' bodies, after they were caught not wearing a mask.
Some 50 sellers and customers at Maron Market took turns to stay in the vehicle for several minutes on Monday as a social punishment. "We punished 50 sellers and customers at Maron Market by making them stay in a hearse," the task force's security and law enforcement coordinator, Ugas Irwanto, told kompas.com on Monday.Inside the hearse, Ugas added, violators were asked to reflect on their actions. The task force also reminded them how the Covid-19 pandemic had taken a lot of lives.
He said the task force would visit 34 other markets in Probolinggo in the next week to ensure residents remained disciplined in following the health protocols. "Probolinggo regent, deputy regent and local stakeholders also participated in this program," said Ugas. As of Monday, Probolinggo had recorded 559 confirmed cases of Covid-19 with 139 active cases, 393 recoveries, and 27 fatalities.
