JAKARTA - President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) was injected with the COVID-19 vaccine from Sinovac today. There is an interesting story when the process of Deputy Chief of Presidential Doctor Abdul Muthalib injected this vaccine into Jokowi's body. His hands seemed to shake he was in charge of injecting this vaccine.

Monitored by VOI from the live broadcast of the Inaugural COVID-19 Vaccination in Indonesia broadcast on the YouTube account of the Presidential Secretariat, Abdul's hands were shaking in carrying out their duties.

He was visibly shaking as he rubbed alcohol on Jokowi's arm before injecting the vaccine. His hands also looked shaky when holding the injection just before putting the vaccine into Jokowi's body. Abdul was still visibly shaking when he applied alcohol and put a bandage over the injection site.

After the injection of the vaccine, Abdul was asked about his shaking hands. He replied that it was natural because this was the first vaccination process in Indonesia.

However, even though he was shaking, the vaccine process into Jokowi's body went well and smoothly.

"Because the first was in Indonesia. But the problem did not become a hindrance for me with the injection. At the injection it was not a problem, it was no longer shaking when the injection was made. At first it was a bit shaking," he said.

"Earlier, it was smooth, there was no problem. In fact, there was no bleeding at all at the injection site," said Abdul.
