"There are 50 people who take PCR tests. But it takes time for the result to come out, thus they have to wait for it," he mentioned, Tuesday (5/25).
Not only providing PCR tests, but his side also put stickers on houses owned by residents who had just returned from homecoming trip (mudik) although they had taken PCR tests.

"Of course we hope both returnees and newcomers to be healthy and their results are negative for COVID-19," he said.
