JAKARTA - The Mayor of Medan, Bobby Nasution, is reviewing the COVID-19 vaccination for the elderly. Bobby wants to make sure the COVID-19 vaccination process goes according to plan.

"I returned to visit the vaccinations for the elderly who are at the Medan Tuntung District Public Health Center (puskesmas) to ensure that the implementation goes according to plan", said Bobby who visited the Medan Tuntung and Medan Belawan puskesmas, Monday, March 8.

Until now, there are 600 elderly people who have been injected with the COVID-19 vaccine. Bobby Nasution is grateful that Medan residents did not experience any symptoms after being vaccinated.

During the visit, Bobby chatted with the head of the Tuntung Public Health Center, Dr. Helena Rugun Nainggolan. Bobby advised the Puskesmas to improve services for the people of Medan.

"Prioritize services to the community. People need excellent service and with a heart", said Bobby to the Puskesmas officers quoted from the statement of the Medan City Government.
