Doni Monardo (10 May 1963 – 3 December 2023) was an Indonesian Army lieutenant general who had previously served as the Head of Indonesian National Board for Disaster Management (BNPB).[1] He also served as Chief of the Coronavirus Disease Response Acceleration Task Force during the COVID-19 pandemic in Indonesia.[2] Monardo supported the government's decision to refrain from a country-wide lockdown, arguing doing so would overwhelm the government.[3]
