Singaraja- Ganesha University of Education (Undiksha) continues to work to assist local governments to stop the spread of Covid-19. After previously providing two Undiksha dormitory blocks in Jinengdalem as centralized isolation (isoters), Undiksha is now back in synergy with Kodim 1609/Buleleng in carrying out convalescent plasma donors. The activity which took place on 23 and 24 August 2021 took place at the Undiksha Auditorium.
The event was also attended by Kasrem 163/Wirasatya, Infantry Colonel Ida Bagus Ketut Surya Widana, Dandim 16/09 Buleleng, Lieutenant Colonel Muhammad Windra Lisrianto, and Undiksha Chancellor Prof. Dr. I Nyoman Jampel, M.Pd. During monitoring, Kasrem 163/Wira Satya, Colonel Inf Ida Bagus Ketut Surya Widana said the implementation of this activity was an effort to help people who were confirmed positive for Covid-19 and needed help through convalescent blood plasma. “This is probably one of the best ways to provide treatment because there is no cure yet for friends who are still confirmed,” he said.
Delivered further, this activity is a form of collaboration between the Kodim, Polres, and Regional Government and is inseparable from Undiksha’s support which has facilitated the location. On this occasion the Chancellor of Undiksha I Nyoman Jampel hoped that this activity would not only be attended by the TNI and Polri, but also the general public who had been confirmed positive for Covid-19. “I appeal to people who have been exposed to Covid-19 to become convalescent donors because this is not mandatory, but awareness for humanity will get something good,” he continued.
Dandim 1609/ Buleleng Lt. Col. Inf Muhammad Windra Lisrianto who was also present at the occasion added that the activities carried out at this stage were screening to determine the health condition of prospective convalescent blood plasma donors. When declared passed screening then the potential donor will be contacted again to be able to donate his blood plasma. “So today is just a stage screening. Tomorrow will pass screening tomorrow the blood will be taken because the team that came today is directly from PMI Denpasar from the Sanglah Central General Hospital (RSUP),” he said. (hms)
