Tanah Laut Regent H Sukamta and the district's Task Force for Acceleration Handling of COVID-19 saw off four patients at the former District Hospital of H Boejasin Pelaihari which was then turned into a COVID-19 quarantine special facility, Friday (May 15, 2020).

Two of them were COVID-19 positive patients who were declared recovered, and two others were People Under Monitoring (ODP) who had undergone swab test and the results were negative.

"You (both) have recovered and two others have negative swab test results. Don't be afraid anymore, because it has been declared negative of coronavirus. Now you can go home, but don't forget to take care of your health and do an independent quarantine at home," said Sukamta with a smiley face. 

Sukamta expressed his gratitude for the healing of the two patients and the negative swab test results on two ODP, who previously found reactive during a rapid test. He then gave gifts to the four of them.
