Abstract

The potential conditions for a worldwide pandemic have been caused by the new coronavirus disease (COVID-19). Since February 2020, the World Health Organization has determined the COVID-19 pandemic status. As a result, all countries in the world, including Indonesia, must adjust to the current global conditions. The Indonesian Ministry of Health has directed all hospitals in the nation to prepare and remodel all facilities to assist the effective handling of COVID-19. As the first line, the Emergency Department has fundamental principles for controlling and treating COVID-19 spread. The challenges should be understood, and the preparations for the COVID-19 pandemic redesign orthopedic and trauma cases.
