"Data on types of exercise to increase immune response to Covid-19 are still limited, but there is evidence that the incidence of URTI (Upper Respiratory Tract Infection) and death from URTI is lower in those who exercise regularly," said Prof. Dr. dr. BM Wara Kushartanti, M.S. in her inaugural speech as a professor in the field of Health Sports Education at the Faculty of Sports Science, Universitas  Negeri Yogyakarta.

There are still many parents or teachers, especially teachers of Physical Education subjects who do not realize that sports activities should not only focus on physical development but must also work on other aspects namely psychological, social, and spiritual.
