Dr. Iwan Ariawan, pengajar Fakultas Kesehatan Masyarakat Universitas Indonesia, mengatakan bahwa masih ada resiko penyebaran besar virus corona karena peningkatan kasus positif selama new normal masih terbilang tinggi.
Meskipun pemerintah sudah melakukan pelonggaran sejumlah peraturan, Iwan menyarankan bahwa tindakan pencegahan seperti mencuci tangan, menjaga jarak dan memakai masker harus terus dilakukan oleh masyarakat.
Pengajar Fakultas Kedokteran Universitas Padjajaran, Dr. Panji Fortuna Hadi Soemarto turut menambahkan bahwa jika wabah virus corona tidak ditangani, maka pertumbuhan ekonomi Indonesia pun akan sulit berjalan. Maka dari itu, ia mengharapkan semakin produktifnya aktivitas masyarakat juga dapat diimbangi dengan kemananan masyarakat.
“Sekarang bukan saatnya menyerah dan jangan mengubah narasi kalau ini baik-baik saja. Sekarang waktunya menempatkan ilmu pengetahuan sebagai nahkoda, lakukan komunikasi yang baik dan perkuat kepemimpinan, jangan hanya gunakan empati saja tapi jujur,” Panji mengharapkan.
