JAKARTA - The Health Office of Cianjur, West Java, noted that until early March the achievement of the first dose of vaccination was 87 percent of the target of 1.9 million recipients and the second dose reached 67 percent, so that various efforts were made to continue to boost the number of vaccination recipients.
The head of the Cianjur Health Office, Dr. Irvan Nur Fauzy, said that mass vaccinations were again held at a number of points to boost the number of recipients with the target that by the end of March, up to 90 percent for the first dose and 80 percent for the second dose could be met.
"Despite being constrained by various things, including the number of health workers who had decreased due to exposure to COVID-19, this week we are intensifying cooperation with the National Armed Forces (TNI)/National Police (Polri), so that the vaccination target can be achieved maximally," he said, quoted by Antara, Sunday, March 6.
He explained that not only for general vaccination targets for children and the third dose (booster) for the elderly, it was also intensified in each health service center, including during holidays, services were still provided for those who had not received vaccinations.
"We are trying to achieve 100 percent by the end of March, but the maximum is at 90 percent, but we are still optimistic that the vaccination can be completed by the end of the month," he said.
