She previously had a backache and a numb right hand. She was also relieved when she heard the advice from health workers that she only needed adequate rest.

"I do plan to check again. There is a health service, so I immediately checked myself. The doctor said I just needed to rest and take regular medication. I was given ibuprofen," she expressed, Friday (11/25).

She also asked the Jakarta Emergency Response Team to visit residents in other earthquake-affected locations, especially those who had difficulty getting access to health services.

"This service can help residents who experience symptoms or health problems. Hope it can help people in other places," she hoped.

The same experience was also felt by Itat Mirawati, a resident of Rancagoong Village, Cilaku Sub-district, Cianjur.

Her 15-year-old daughter, Herpi Alpriani, suffered bruises as a result of being jostled with other students at school when she was trying to protect herself when the earthquake hit Cianjur.

However, she discouraged treatment because of the queue of patients at the health post. As a result, the bruises suffered by his son did not heal. Luckily, the Jakarta Emergency Response Team is currently opening a health service at Taman Prawatasari, which is near her residence.

"Want to seek treatment at health service posts but it's crowded. I wanted to go home, but I saw that the Jakarta Health Agency's ambulance had just arrived. Finally, we came and were immediately assisted, as well as given the doctor's instructions and medicine. Thank you for all the help," she closed.
