Elementary school students in Kendari, Southeast Sulawesi, shop for food in the canteen near the school without strict supervision, Tuesday (10/5/2022). Cases of acute hepatitis that attack children appear in many places on the island of Java. Even so, the school in Kendari has not yet received a thorough understanding of this case and has carried out normal learning.

After the school holiday and ahead of the new school year, many parents are worried about the cases of an unusual type of hepatitis, the cause of which has not been identified.
