Bali To Start Screening Tourists On Arrival For Potential Monkey Pox Cases

First and foremost, Bali has reported no cases of Monkey Pox. The Bali Provincial Health Office stated that it had coordinated with I Gusti Ngurah Rai International Airport as the main point of entry for tourists to Bali regarding efforts to prevent the entry of monkeypox.

75 countries in the world have already reported cases of monkeypox in their territory. The province of Bali as a world tourist destination has the potential for the arrival of the virus that first appeared on the African continent.

Bali Provincial Health Bureau Chief Dr. I Nyoman Gede Anom MKes said his group had coordinated with I Gusti Ngurah Rai International Airport and Denpasar Class I Port Health Bureau (KKP), to install detection tools to detect monkeypox

The newly introduced screening measures were described by the General Manager of I Gusti Ngurah Rai Airport, Handy Heryudhitiawan. To stop the spread of this disease, he said his teams are “supporting facilities such as installing thermal scanners at the entrance of the arrivals and departures hall and placing disinfecting carpets at each entrance and exit of the passenger area.”

The new screening procedures will have little impact on the way people pass through Bali AirportHeryudhitiawan reiterated that these preventive measures are in place and that there are no special guidelines or precautions regarding monkeypox.





However, they will continue to work to ensure the service so that passengers can fly safely and healthily, he said in concluding his remarks.

Symptoms of monkeypox usually do not appear until 6 to 13 days after infection. The first signs of the disease include high fever, severe headache, swollen lymph nodes, and muscle pain. Blisters, which resemble chickenpox, first form on the face and spread to the body 1-3 days after the fever begins.

Symptoms can last 2-4 weeks. Although the infection is uncomfortable and painful, it rarely causes death these days. Depending on the severity of symptoms, some people may need to be hospitalized and quarantined.
