MEDAN - Medan City Mayor Bobby Nasution said that monitoring the COVID-19 vaccination program is his first task. President Jokowi's son-in-law wants the COVID-19 vaccination to be successful.

"Yes, of course, during the COVID-19 pandemic, of course, the first thing we will review is that the vaccination program must run well, especially in Medan", said Bobby Nasution, Friday, February 26.

For this program, Bobby targets 70 percent of Medan citizens to be injected with the COVID-19 vaccine. Because of that, Bobby Nasution will intensify outreach to Medan citizens.

"We will hold vaccinations on how to socialize, how can people get vaccines. How to register, maybe today people don't know how to register independently, through websites, or hospitals. So this is what we have to socialize", he continued.

By accelerating the COVID-19 vaccination, Bobby Nasution believes all sectors will be able to run normally again. "Once it is achieved, the economy, MSMEs must go hand in hand", he said.

In addition, with the COVID-19 vaccination, Bobby Nasution believes face-to-face learning process can be implemented in Medan City soon.

"Everything we start from vaccination. Starting from educators we will vaccinate, that way, slowly we will open classes. The greater the percentage of vaccinations, the bigger the class we will open", he explained.
