Indonesian lab workers arrested as police find reused test kits taken with a nasal swab. Some 10 minutes later, the lab presented a positive test result for the cop.
Police have arrested employees at a Kimia Farma lab located at Kualanamu International Airport in North Sumatra, who allegedly reused antigen rapid test kits on customers to cut costs. The North Sumatra Police said it sent an undercover officer to take a rapid antigen test at the lab following complaints from passengers over the past week that they received false positive results from the lab. An undercover cop signed up for the antigen rapid test and had his samples
Sensing something was amiss, police officers then raided the lab and gathered its staff, during which they found hundreds of used swab test kits that were going to be prepared for reuse. Authorities said that the swabs — which must be sterile before they are inserted into the nostrils — were washed and cleaned after use, and repackaged before they were reused on other passengers. It’s not immediately clear how many people, on average, a single swab was used on. The police then arrested at least five lab workers and confiscated a number of items as evidence, including the antigen swab test kits in question.
Indonesian pharmaceutical giant Kimia Farma has released a statement condemning the Kualanamu Airport lab workers, saying that they violated the company’s standard operating procedures. Police have not publicly announced the charges against the suspects. Domestic travelers in Indonesia, including those traveling by air, are required to undergo either a PCR or antigen rapid test, the result of which is valid for 24 hours. The antigen rapid test, also known as antigen swab test, is conducted by taking samples of secretions from the nose and throat to detect the presence of certain viral antigens that indicate a current viral infection. The antigen swab test is relatively more affordable than the PCR swab test, though the latter is still considered the gold standard in terms of accuracy. (coconuts.co)

Indonesian traveler paid IDR6.5 million to skip quarantine after return from India: police The Jakarta Metro Police has arrested a traveler and two airport officials over an alleged bribe that allowed the former to skip hotel quarantine, which is mandatory for all incoming travelers from abroad. Travel restrictions are stricter for travelers from India, however, as Indonesia seeks to prevent transmission of dangerous new mutations of the coronavirus by suspending all arrivals from the South Asian country over its devastating second COVID-19 wave. The traveler, an Indonesian man identified by his initials JD, flew back to Jakarta from India on Sunday, April 25, which marked the first day of the ban.

The suspension does not apply to Indonesians returning from India, as they are still permitted to enter the country with “tightened health protocols,” including a mandatory 14-day quarantine at designated hotels.

According to the police, upon arrival at the Soekarno-Hatta Airport, JD bribed two men, who claimed to be airport officials identified by the initials S and RW, IDR6.5 million (US$448.39) to skip quarantine. “It was taken care of by S and RW, and [JD] was able to go home without undergoing quarantine,” Jakarta Metro Police spokesman Yusri Yunus said yesterday.

Police say they’re investigating the possibility that S and RW and that they may be part of an organized crime syndicate that helps returning travelers circumvent mandatory isolation for a fee. It’s not clear if they actually work at the airport, but the SoekarnoHatta Immigration Office believes that no airport employee was involved and that S and RW aided JD after he had left the airport. The police have yet to publicly announce charges against JD, S, and RW. Indonesians have become especially wary of travelers from India after hundreds arrived in the country prior to the travel ban, at least 12 of whom tested positive for COVID-19. (coconuts.co))
