JAKARTA - The government plans to provide a third or booster dose of vaccination outside health workers (nakes). This was conveyed by Spokesperson for the COVID-19 Task Force (Satgas) Wiku Adisasmito. However, this policy still needs to be studied.

"The vaccination program also has an option to expand vaccination coverage, especially for the third dose of vaccine or booster outside of health workers. However, for this, a study is still needed," said Wiku in a press release on the official website of the Presidential Secretariat, quoted by VOI, Saturday, November 20.

Wiku said, the study in question was based on data from the Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Home Affairs.

The government continues to focus efforts on achieving the vaccination target of 70 percent of the population receiving the first dose of vaccine.

"Once again the government emphasizes that vaccines are the right of every citizen and will not be charged for the target recipients," he added.
