A distribution map of COVID-19, consisting of persons under monitoring and patients under observation, screengrabbed from Denpasar city’s official website on March 30.The Mayor of Denpasar yesterday urged the city’s residents to refrain from returning to their hometowns and stay at home instead, as part of an effort to curb the spread of COVID-19 in Bali.
“I am asking all residents living in Denpasar for the time being do not go anywhere, including to go to your hometown, stay at your respective homes [instead] to break the chain on COVID-19 spread,” Denpasar Mayor Ida Bagus Rai Dharmawijaya Mantra said, as quoted by state news agency Antara.
Many of those who live in Denpasar hail from different parts of the island and even the country. With the social and physical distancing advisory in place and the option to return to their family homes might make sense financially, officials fear it might contribute to further spread of COVID-19.
According to Denpasar government’s official website, there are currently 96 people under monitoring in the city, along with two patients under observation and two more who have tested positive for the novel coronavirus.
Across Bali, the total number of positive COVID-19 cases stand at 10 as of yesterday afternoon, including two deaths of foreign nationals, while a total of 141 patients have been placed under observation, as per data from the provincial government.
“Our success in breaking the chain of coronavirus spread requires discipline and cooperation from everyone, not only the government, but also the public in heeding the instructions and suggestions from officials,” Rai Mantra said.
Last week, a nurse who tested positive for COVID-19 reportedly went home to Tabanan regency while waiting for her test results, prompting officials to trace her close contacts immediately.

Covid -19 Update Mar. 31, 2020
Good Morning from Bali, Indonesia.
From Lawrence, Editor of Bali + World News & Views -1,600,000 Pageviews.
He is a 22 year resident of Bali & Owner + General Manager of a TripAdvisor Hall of Fame award-winning hotel with thousands of satisfied guests. He is also a seasoned worldwide traveler.

Bali + World News & Views Editor following mayor of Denpasar's Advice:
As you can see by the photo above I am following the mayor of Denpasar's advice to work at home if at all possible even though I don't live in Denpasar But I do have my hotel and villas there.
Fortunately, my work is primarily computer and communications management. In the last few years with the help of Facebook, WhatsApp email and of course mobile phones I've been able to manage my Hotel and Villas with 100+ staff from anywhere in the world including when I'm traveling.

| Lawrence managing his business from Macau, China |
I know some of you are saying, well it's easy for you to do!
You're in an air-conditioned office sitting in an extremely comfortable Lazy Boy chair With your remote keyboard, mouse and large monitor to prevent you from hunching over a computer and being sore all over. And you would be right.
Many of you assume that I have a maid waiting on me hand and foot Normally in my past 22 years here I would have but unfortunately we are short one maid right now. If anybody wants a job we are great bosses.
Instead, my beautiful wife Azizah, a professional Notaris in Bali who normally would be in her office is at home helping for 2 to 3 hours every day as our two boys receive homeschooling from the Gandhi International school.
She has used this time at home to learn how to cook and has been preparing some meals that are more and more exciting and delicious every day.
When I finish here I will be doing my own version of the cooking, utilizing my four years as a chef and 17 years as a restaurant owner to cook some Italian chicken à la Lawrence.
Yesterday I had my driver take me into the office, ( he wears a mask and gloves before even gets in the car) because it was payroll and unfortunately that's one thing I can't do on a computer as it has to be signed.
I proceeded to my bedroom to shower thoroughly and wash my entire body so I've not brought any virus back in the house.
Then I make sure that my clothes outside are either hung in the sun to dry and my clothes are washed thoroughly.
Ignorance Creates Fear:
I know many of you in the 4 million+ population on Bali probably are very afraid of what may come next. And you should be.
The bottom line is this if we don't get rid of this in the next 30 days we will take the risk of losing our entire high season tourism industry. It probably accounts for 90% of the jobs for all Indonesians and ex-pats living here.
Alternatively, die alone with strangers.
I've been following Coronavirus since day one, when the first 45 cases were announced in China on January 16.
I've been charting it and advising staff, my clients and the public almost daily.
We Will Beat This if we follow the Protocol.
The bottom line is we can and will beat this, but only if we all try to avoid any contact with anything that may be contagious.
We also have to avoid all other substances such as cardboard, paper and even furniture clothing etc. because it's been proven that COVID-19 can live up to 24 hours on that as well.
Disinfect all Food, Packing and Containers:
Yesterday we instituted a new regime at our house whereby all fruits and vegetables must have the wrappings discarded before they enter our home.
They then must be soaked in a solution of one part vinegar and four parts water plus some salt. Finally washed off and stored.
I learned this trick when I was sailing through the Pacific for three years and had to deal with some very dodgy provisions which could have Viruses that most Western people are not immune to.
I will be making a list of all the blogs that have advice on how to handle this virus And publish them in my next blog.
Knowledge is power and in this situation with the most horrific disease to hit mankind in over 100 years knowledge may save your or your family's life.
What's the Alternative to Quarantine
When you find yourself or others complaining about possibly being locked down or the best case scenario asked to avoid any unnecessary travel think about this. The stories that are coming out of the hospitals around the world where people are being treated by the virus are nightmarish.
If you get really bad you will wind up dying with a bunch of strangers and buried with no fanfare or farewell.
That makes it very easy for me to spend 2-4 weeks or whatever it takes to avoid getting this virus by staying at home and being aware and careful about coming into contact with this disease.
"Good chance that Bali should and will shut down as well"
Don't be surprised to see a total shutdown of the airport and seaports such as Gillmanuk, Padangbai and Benoa.
Yesterday announced the closure of all restaurants in Chengdu along with the beaches. They are still available for take-out and delivery. All restaurants should and probably will close.
This may sound pretty dramatic, but I thought about it today if we don't get this under control and flatten out the curve of rising cases before the end of May the tourist industry will be dead for the high season July, August September and October.
"If we don't get this under control and flatten out the curve of rising cases before the end of May the tourist industry will be dead for the high season July, August, September and October."
So do your part to ensure that this doesn't happen by staying at home with your loved ones.
The longer we delay doing this the longer it will take to flatten out the new new case curve and the longer it will take for tourists to feel safe to return to Bali.
