Hi Hiver
In the first time, I would like to introduce myself, I am @ericha from Indonesia, and now I live in the province of Aceh. Here I want to share about my Quarantine life story about how me and my family through the turbolance of difficult quarantine times since the covid-19 pandemic began enter to Indonesian territory. This contest was initiative by @theycallmedan, to better understand the contest rule, you can read it here
How has coronavirus affected My life, financially, health and otherwise.
In Indonesia Covid 19 [Coronavirus] has become a pandemic and that was so frightening, unreasonable, according to the latest data, the deadly virus has infected at least 500 thousand more people in the world.
This virus began enter to Indonesia in early March 2020, and so, it just only took 4 weeks, there were at least 122 positive patients Corona virus died, more than 1.414 people who were infected [Goverment data release at 31 March 2020].
The latest, the government here has set Social Distancing [limiting the crowd] to stop the virus chain, and the cooperative action by all stakeholders was needed.
Security forces were also mobilized to maintain conditions so that people began to settle at home. Even though there are only 5 positive Corona in our province,Aceh it seems the government does not want to mess with the rapid spread of this virus. Regional quarantine is the latest option and has begun to be implemented in a number of provinces in Indonesia.
A few days ago, we were still able to enjoy the air in the outside of our house, I still took time to capture some pictures through a cellphone camera. But since yesterday, there has been a curfew here. The community must no longer be active since at 08.00 pm until 05.00 am in the morning.
I have just returned from my hometown, not wanting to take the risk, we are required to report travel history outside the area to the local health agency.
My husband has a street food business [traditional salad], since the social distancing begins, the business outlet has been temporarily closed. In addition to a large turnover, we assess that by temporarily closing, of course we can save on production costs. Its was such as bad dream for us, our economy income must shutdown now.
I have two children, They were aged 5 years and 1 year, I do not want to take the risk, whatever happens they must be as safe as possible from the virus contamination.
During the quarantine period, aside from providing food, we just stayed at home. There is no activity outside the house, even if there is a need for only one person to leave the house [My husband], when returning from outside the house, He must clean up himself, including bathing and cleaning his clothes and put them in the warehouse.
To fill my spare time, I can only cook a few daily dishes at home, so far we no longer buy fresh food in the outside. The alternative is that I have to be diligent in cooking and maintaining food for them.
Well, that's my story that is undergoing a quarantine time period in the province of Aceh, Indonesia. Hopefully it will be useful information and sharing for Hiver wherever you are.
Keep Spirit and Stay At Home
