The spread of the Covid-19 virus in Indonesia continues to increase. As of now, it is known that there are 579 people infected with Covid-19 with a total of 49 deaths. The presence of the Covid-19 virus in Indonesia has prompted the government to plan for the early cancellation of national exams.
The Covid-19 virus has been declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO). The virus has infected various countries, including continents. The transmission of the Covid-19 virus can occur through the air and the fluids of patients.
Transmission is more likely to occur if someone has direct contact with an infected person. The government has advised the public to practice social distancing. Social distancing is done to keep people away from crowded areas in order to prevent the spread of the Covid-19 virus.

Monday, (23/03/2020), Chairman of Commission X of the Indonesian Parliament, Syaiful Huda, requested the government to cancel the implementation of national exams for high school/junior high school as a way to prevent the spread of the Covid-19 virus. According to him, hundreds to millions of students will be exposed to the Covid-19 virus if the national exams are still held.
"This is considering the widespread COVID-19 outbreak. Hundreds of thousands to millions of students are at risk of being exposed to this virus if the implementation of the national exams is forced this year," he said as quoted from antaranews.com.
He also hopes that the Ministry of Education and Culture (Kemdikbud) will eliminate the national exams to avoid greater impacts.
"We really hope that the Ministry of Education and Culture (Kemdikbud) will consider the conditions of the spread of the Covid-19 outbreak. It would be better to avoid greater dangers by simply canceling the national exams for high school/junior high school," he continued.
