GeNose C-19 processors. Each unit can daily evaluate 500-600 breathing bags.
The GeNose C19 is a coronavirus screening device created by Indonesia’s
Gajah Mada University in Yogyakarta that can quickly analyze the exhalations into a plastic breathing bag and determine if the
COVID-19 virus is present in only 3 minutes. The machine examining the collected exhalations from the plastic bags uses reagent gasses to detect COVID-19.
The system and the technology have been tested and certified by the
Indonesian Ministry of Health under the category of “
Electro-medical non-radioactive B” with an official registration number of
RI AKD 2040102288.
NusaBali, the Manager of Stakeholder Relations at the
Swab Test has made itself felt on arrival numbers at Ngurah Rai International Airport.
The Bali Airport Authority recorded 6,289 arriving domestic passengers on Sunday, 20 December 2020. That number compares poorly with the 13,473 passengers who landed three days earlier on Thursday, 17 December 2020, the day before the more stringent entry requirements took effect from Bali’s Provincial Government.
Taufan Yudhistira, the Stakeholder Relation Manager for
The Airport Authority PT Angkasa Pura I at Ngurah Rai, confirmed that on mid-day Monday, 21 December 2020, arrivals continued a downward trend with only 1,800 passengers arriving as of noonday.
NusaBali.com quotes Taufan, who suggested that the decline in passenger total is linked to the government’s new Swab Tests requirement.
