JAKARTA - Coordinating Minister for Human Development and Culture (Menko PMK), Muhadjir Effendy said a number of vaccination programs that are now using the Red and White Vaccine will be charged in stages through the APBN. "Right KPC-PEN (Covid-19 Handling Committee and National Economic Recovery) has been disbanded, yes, later the funding will not be free anymore," he said, quoted by ANTARA, Wednesday, June 14. He said that in the future vaccinations would be carried out in a paid manner through the BPJS Health scheme. As for people who can't afford it, he continued, it could be included in the PBI (Receivable Contribution Assistance) system. "Later (vaccines) will be the same as medicines where BPJS Kesehatan became its guarantor," said Muhadjir Effendy.

The Minister of PMK also asked the public to continue to comply with health protocols (prokes) even though they are no longer required. "We ask the public to continue to comply with the prokes, for example wearing masks and so on, please, even though they are no longer required," he said.
