Kapanlagi.com - The rapid test for corona virus conducted by Maia Estianty and her family has sparked pros and cons. Many netizens feel jealous of Maia because she was able to do the rapid test when the government only conducted limited tests.
Maia is said to have received special treatment compared to other Indonesian citizens because she was tested first. Being wealthier than others, Maia can afford to do this expensive test for her entire family and household assistants.

Many netizens flooded Maia's account with various jealous comments. There were also many who criticized Maia for being considered unsympathetic to the families of COVID-19 patients who were classified as Patients Under Surveillance (ODP) but had not been able to undergo testing.
Initially, Maia responded to comments from netizens. She explained that the distribution of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) from her donation, along with her friends, would continue.
"The distribution of PPE from my donation is still ongoing. In the name of God," wrote this mother of three.
2. Closing the Comment Section
However, negative comments continued to come in, and eventually Maia chose to close the comment section. Although not all comments were attacking her, Maia still chose to close the comment section on her post about the rapid test.
However, Maia did not delete the post from her personal Instagram page. Until now, she still displays a short video announcing that she and her family, as well as her assistant, are free from the coronavirus based on the results of the rapid test.
So why did Maia close her comment section? As of the time this news was published, KapanLagi.com is still trying to contact Maia to get further information.
