91 people died in a week after Indonesian earthquake Corona infection

The earthquake in Sulawesi, Indonesia, a week after the earthquake occurred on the 22nd, has so far confirmed 91 deaths.

Food support has not been provided to the victims, and infection with the new coronavirus has been confirmed, and measures are urgently needed.

A magnitude 6.2 earthquake struck West Sulawesi, Sulawesi, Indonesia on the 15th of this month, killing at least 91 people and injuring 1172, according to disaster prevention officials.

Many buildings have collapsed in Mamuju in the central state and Majene in the south, and the search for those left behind under debris continues.

In addition, about 9,400 people have been evacuated.

At AMDA's Indonesian branch, an international medical volunteer organization in Okayama City, 16 people, including Indonesian doctors, entered the disaster area two days after the earthquake to treat injured people and distribute relief supplies.

Andy Husni Tanla said, "We can only distribute snacks to children," he said, saying that food shortages were severe and roads to the affected areas were cut off and government support was not sufficient. I'm talking.

Furthermore, there are concerns about the spread of the new coronavirus infection.

Although the authorities have not announced the infection to the victims, it is said that there were five victims who were confirmed to be infected after the earthquake even if the AMDA support team grasped it in three days.

"We are always calling on the victims to take measures against infection, such as washing their hands. The challenge is how to keep the distance in a small evacuation tent," said Tanla.
