PSSI also advised fans to pay attention to their health before attending matches. Spectators with congenital diseases or a history of medical conditions should consider watching the team on television and digital platforms instead of attending the stadium in person.
People with specific health conditions should also consult their doctor before attending crowded events.
According to PSSI, medical services at the stadium are always ensured through coordination with the city of Surabaya, with the establishment of eight stations staffed by doctors and medical personnel on standby to handle emergencies.
In addition, all spectators who purchased tickets to watch the national team were covered by life insurance from PSSI's official partner. The families of the victims will also receive these insurance benefits.
