No more GeNose, as only PCR test results accepted for air travelers visiting Bali Results from GeNose tests are no longer acceptable for those traveling by land or sea either, Koster added, though rapid antigen swab tests are still accepted for travelers going by these modes of transport.

Negative results from PCR swab tests are now the only acceptable document for air travelers visiting Bali, Governor Wayan Koster announced today, with other not-so-reliable COVID-19 test methods believed to have contributed to the infected slipping through the cracks and into the island. “So we are tightening restrictions at Bali’s entry points, [those] traveling with air transportation must use PCR-based tests. They can no longer use GeNose,” Koster said today.

In April, Bali officials started allowing all travelers to present negative results from the locally developed GeNose COVID-19 test to enter the province. At the time, public health experts raised concerns about GeNose’s accuracy, and said it shouldn’t be used so widely. Along with the newly announced traveling requirements, all negative swab test results must also come with a QR code to prevent fake documentation, Koster said. “Because there have been many fake [and] paid documentation. So they have

the results but they have never gone through a swab test,” he said. The new requirements are applicable starting today, though officials are likely to implement a transition period for a few days before making it completely mandatory. The governor said Bali has seen an increase in domestic travelers in the last few weeks, averaging between 8,000 and 9,000 people coming in via air transport, while around 10,000 people pass through Gilimanuk Port daily. After about a month of reporting less than 100 daily cases, Bali’s daily count rose to triple digits on June 19 and has been climbing up since. Indonesia is battling its fiercest coronavirus outbreak yet, setting a new daily record just yesterday with over 21,000 cases. (coconuts.co)

7 dead, 11 missing after passenger ferry sinks off Bali coast

At least seven people died and 11 are missing following the sinking of passenger ferry KMP Yunice off the coast of Bali, the Search and Rescue Agency (Basarnas) said this morning.

Gede Darmada, who heads Basarnas Bali, said in a statement that KMP Yunice had 57 passengers and crew on board, and was headed for Bali’s Gilimanuk Port from Ketapang Port in Banyuwangi, East Java yesterday evening. The accident reportedly occurred when the ferry tried to dock, but it was swept away by tides and tipped over to the side before it sank. The latest numbers were compiled as of 9am today, Darmada said, adding that 39 people were rescued. Basarnas Bali is still compiling passengers data from multiple sources, alluding to other

reports citing different numbers of people on board the vessel. Videos taken from Gilimanuk Port have circulated widely on social media since last night, showing the rescue efforts as they unfolded, while several other footage depicted the dead victims just moments after their bodies were recovered. As of this morning, Basarnas Bali said search and rescuers are still focused on sweeping the sea surface. (coconuts.co)
