Nine infected with covid have been identified in Binjari. Whereas earlier residents of this area were allowed to leave their homes to buy food, play sports or get vaccinated, now they are allowed to do so only for urgent medical care or as required by law. Food will be delivered to them by the police and the army. It was noted that the community is poor, many do not have electricity, 15 people live in houses, and the heat is 40 degrees outside, so they experience quite real torment, being locked up around the clock.

9 identified infected, as well as 38 of their closest contacts, were removed from their place of residence and moved to special camps in Howard Springs, and a total of 200 people live in this place (the rest were not sent to the camp, but simply locked at home).

Dozens of police officers and the army were involved in the process of suppressing the outbreak.
