Rizieq Shihab made a tantrum by deliberately inviting 10,000 people to his daughter’s wedding, with the excuse of commemorating maul i d. He also had time to fill in events in Bogor and other places. The aftermath of these events was the formation of new corona clusters in Petamburan and Bogor.
After Rizieq Shihab returned to Indonesia in early november 2020, every day there saa news about him. Unfortunately the narrative is always negative, because he insists on conducting a lecture safari and throwing a big party. Even though it is clear that it violates the physical distancing protocol . He is also recalcitrant and does not want a swab test in Indonesia and refuses to self-quarantine.
About 10 days after the wedding ceremony at Rizieq’s house , it was reported that 80 people had contracted the corona. They were the ones who were invited by the FPI leaders to the party, and some were present at the lecture that brought Habib Rizieq. The formation of the corona cluster has been predicted by epidemiologists.
It was also reported that the Head of Petamburan Village had a positive swab test after attending the party. Even Rizieq and his wife are currently entering the emergency room at a private hospital in Bogor. His family will do tests sw ab bulk. However, their children evade if they get corona, the reason is just a regular medical check-up .
Unfortunately the public doesn’t believe what they say because the annual medical checkup why should you stay at the ER? Maybe he was embarrassed because if he tested positive for color, he proved to be stubborn and did not want the swab test after landing at Soekarno Hatta Airport, and ignored the protocol for self-quarantine for 14 days.
It was different with the congregation and guests at the event which Rizieq attended . There were various reactions when they tested positive for corona. There are those who are normal and want to be isolated independently as a family, and some don’t even believe the test results. Meanwhile, there were others who were in deep shock because they did not expect to have a dangerous disease .
If they are already mass sick, do they still want to blame other people and the government? Even though they came to the event on their own awareness, so they shouldn’t blame others. Even though you have worn a mask, in the lecture there was no application of distance guarding rules, thus making the transmission of corona faster.
Especially at those parties and lectures, there were eating sessions together. That’s when the virus lurked, as many people took off their masks and started feeding their dishes. In addition, if they accidentally use the same or less hygienic eating utensils, the transmission of the covid-19 virus will occur more quickly.
Deputy Secretary General of the MUI, Najamuddin Ramli, regretted the crowd at the event attended by Rizieq . According to him, the crowd had ruined the hard work of the COVID-19 team for months. Because the crowd was congested when Rizieq arrived at the airport, during events in Petamburan, Bogor, and other places.
People should be orderly and still adhere to health protocols, even though currently it is already an adaptation phase for new habits. Don’t throw any big commemorative parties or events, they are still very dangerous. Because who knows that there are people without symptoms who accidentally transmit coro na. It is better to refrain from being safe and sound.
The crowd at the event Rizieq attended had made a new corona cluster bomb and astonished the public. Those who were sick finally regretted being stubborn and ignored the prohibition of the Covid Satga team from carrying out physical distancing in an orderly manner . Rice has become porridge. Hopefully there will be no more similar events that claim a lot of victims.
