Jakarta uses ‘shock tactics’


Authorities in Indonesia’s capital are experimenting with some shock tactics to fight Covid-19 – by displaying an empty coffin at a busy intersection as a reminder of the dangers of the highly contagious virus.

The words “Covid-19 victim” are painted red on the casket on display in one district of Jakarta, which is the epicentre of the coronavirus outbreak in Indonesia.
