COVID-19 has widely spread in Indonesia and threatened health care workers at the frontline. We reported 12 cases of COVID-19 via local transmission among cardiology residents in National Cardiovascular Centre Harapan Kita Indonesia. All cases were asymptomatic or minimally symptomatic. Universal precaution and standardized protective equipment have been used but still ineffective to prevent bacterial transmission. Improper doffing technique and unfitted protective equipment might be responsible for cross infection.
Key words: COVID-19, asymptomatic infections, personal protective equipment, Indonesia
