JAKARTA - Deputy Governor of DKI Jakarta, Ahmad Riza Patria, admitted that the alleged case of misuse of information about special vaccination recipients for health workers will be a lesson for the DKI Provincial Government.
This is related to the case of the celebrity program Helena Lim, who received priority COVID-19 vaccination for health workers at the Kebon Jeruk Community Health Center some time ago.
"This is a learning pattern for all of us, officials, officers, to be more thorough," said Riza at the City Hall of DKI, Central Jakarta, Monday, February 15.
Riza admitted that the DKI Inspectorate had examined the Kebon Jeruk Puskesmas officers to find out where the vaccination data was wrong. As a result, Riza claims that her staff have carried out procedures according to the rules.
"The puskesmas officer has carried out the procedure, the existing rules are that the person concerned (Helena Lim and her family) carries a letter of recommendation from the pharmacy which states that the four people are employees," he said.
Unfortunately, the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government was conceded for allegedly receiving a false statement regarding Helena Lim's professional background. Apotek Bumi informed the puskesmas that Helena was a pharmacist.
"But then, it turned out that it was suspected there was the owner, not an employee. Let that be the authority of the police. If there is any suspicion of data manipulation, that is the area of the police, not us anymore," said Riza.
While waiting for the results of the police investigation, Riza asked the community to wait patiently for their turn to receive the COVID-19 vaccine according to schedule.
Because, currently vaccines are still prioritized for health workers, public service workers, and groups vulnerable to being exposed to the corona virus.
"We ask for patience, calm. In time we will have the same opportunity to get vaccines. Now we prioritize according to the rules and policies of the central government, vaccines are given to health workers, we will follow," he said.
This case started when Helena Lim marched herself to get the vaccine.
In fact, the vaccine is prioritized for health workers. Many publics have questioned the background of the woman's profession, known as the crazy rich Pantai Indah Kapuk. What the public knows, Helena is a singer who released a single entitled Pasrah.
