JAKARTA - National Police Chief Gen. Pol Listyo Sigit Prabowo appreciates the involvement of kiai and clerics in the implementation of the COVID-19 vaccination in Pamekasan, East Java. That way, Listyo believes that the acceleration of the COVID-19 vaccination can be completed soon.
According to Sigit, the active role of kiai and ulama shows the support from various community groups for the government's efforts to accelerate COVID-19 vaccination.
"I was surprised to witness firsthand several kiai today implementing the first vaccine. This is an encouragement for all of us," said the National Police Chief when reviewing the mass COVID-19 vaccination in Pamekasan as quoted by Antara, Saturday, February 19.
On that occasion, the National Police Chief also witnessed the kiai and clerics taking the second and third doses of COVID-19 vaccination.
"This means that there is progress (progress, ed.) and the enthusiasm of the existing figures and the support of the whole community," added Listyo Sigit.
The National Police Chief also said that the acceleration of vaccination is a way to form herd immunity, especially now that there is a new variant of COVID-19, Omicron.
"We are doing all of this to increase immunity and maintain public health and safety from the new variant of Omicron, especially for the elderly," said the National Police Chief.
He continued to convey that in general the death rate from COVID-19 is relatively low, but the virus is still a risk for those who have a congenital disease (comorbid).
Thus, he assessed that vaccination was still the best effort to prevent the worst risks from COVID-19.
"The only thing we have to do is make sure we've all been vaccinated, because that's the best we can do against Omicron or another new variant," he said.
During his visit to Pamekasan, the National Police Chief also thanked the people who participated in the vaccination.
"Thank you to all the people of Madura Island and Pamekasan City for today's enthusiasm to carry out vaccinations. With this good achievement, we all pray that the Pamekasan region is ready to face the new variant of Omicron. There is no fatality rate and everyone is safe and always healthy," said the National Police Chief to the Pamekasan community. .
