Jakarta Vice Governor, Djarot Saiful Hidayat instructs Jakarta Health Dept to introduce healthcare facilities toward residents, especially handling of Tuberculosis (TB).

I want this healthcare service is opened in puskesmas, such as urban village, sub-district and RSUK

"I want this healthcare service is opened in puskesmas, such as urban village, sub-district and RSUK," he disclosed, at City Hall, Tuesday (9/20).

He instructed officers to give a better understanding about Tuberculosis. Thus people understand the impact where if it is not treated immediately, it can transmit to others.

"Its treatment must be done routinely or at least six months," he expressed.

According to him, it is not only conducted by Health Dept, but also other regional working units (SKPD) such as Housing and Social dept.

"The handling should also focus on densely populated areas as well as flats. Because the disease is very quickly spread," he finished.
