Officials have announced that all Bali regions have officially turned into a Covid-19 epidemiological orange zone.

I Made Rentin, Secretary of the Bali Covid-19 Handling Task Force, announced that as of Thursday (9/9), all nine regions in the province of Bali had become an epidemiological orange zone area for Covid-19 transmissions. “With a total of 101,072 Covid recoveries, the risk of Covid transmission in Bali has dropped, and they are now officially classified as an epidemiological orange zone.” Rentin stated in Denpasar on Thursday (9/9).

All Bali regions have lately provided updates on recovered Covid-19 patients, including Jembrana (30 patients), Denpasar (79 patients), Karangasem (14 patients), Buleleng (38 patients), Gianyar (96 patients), Klungkung (3 patients), Badung (82 patients), and Tabanan (62 patients).

Rentin was grateful that Bali had successfully reduced the risk of Covid-19 transmissions, which had been on the rise in recent months, particularly in six Bali provinces previously designated as red zone areas: Denpasar, Badung, Tabanan, Buleleng, Karangasem, and Klungkung. Rentin, on the other hand, recommends the population to continue limiting their mobility and avoiding crowding in order to prevent Covid-19 instances from increasing, particularly during the island's level 4 partial lockdown implementation.
