New Coronavirus Clusters Emerge in Jakarta Office Buildings

Amanda Siddharta

   JAKARTA - Two months ago, Jakarta transitioned away from large-scale
   social restrictions imposed to curb the spread of the novel
   coronavirus, allowing people like Sri Hendary to resume normal
   activities like working at the office.

   But this past Monday, Sri had to revert to working from home when her
   office decided the risk of workplace infection became too great.

   "We now work in shifts," said Sri, who works at a shipping company that
   abides the strict health protocols enforced in most Jakarta office
   buildings.

   "In our building, every person has to get their temperature checked
   with a thermal scan, disinfect their hands and shoes, and wear a mask
   at all times," she explained.
