JAKARTA - The Special Staff of the Minister of State-owned Enterprises (BUMN), Arya Sinulingga said that the enthusiasm of the elderly to participate in vaccination at the Istora Senayan COVID-19 Vaccination Center is very high. This can be seen by the increasing number of participants.
On the first day, March 8, continued Arya, only 18 percent of the 5.000 elderly people who were invited to do the vaccine attended.
Then, on the second day of vaccination, of the 5.000 elderly who were invited to do the vaccine, the number who attended increased to 22 percent.
On the third day, the number of attendance increased to 45 percent of the 5.000 invited seniors.
"So the increase jumped within three days and this shows that the elderly are getting more enthusiastic about being vaccinated and the news that they are being served very well is spreading everywhere", he said in his official statement, Thursday, March 11.
Furthermore, Arya said that the vaccination process for the elderly was served very well. He claims this makes the elderly feel safe and comfortable to administer the vaccine.
"We hope this figure will continue to increase every day and we can serve the elderly as much as possible and can be continued in several cities in Indonesia, especially eight cities", he said.
For your information, the Ministry of BUMN together with the Ministry of Health, the DKI Regional Government, and the Indonesia Healthcare Corporation have collaborated to conduct a Joint Vaccination Center for COVID-19 at Istora Senayan, Jakarta.

It is targeted that no less than 5 thousand registrants will be vaccinated every day. This program will be conducted consecutively for about 4 months.
Since its inaugural performance, information has emerged on social media stating that the COVID-19 Vaccination Center is open to all ID cardholders. Arya got this straight. He said that the Ministry of BUMN's Vaccination Center was intended for public employees and seniors registered in DKI Jakarta, not for the public.
"So it is not for those who are not public employees and not the elderly. This is a hoax that needs to be straightened out", he said.
