Head of the Salemba Class 1A Detention Center, Yohanis Varianto, said the vaccination process for 3,224 inmates was divided into two stages. In the first phase, 2,100 inmates were vaccinated in the complete vaccination program.
"In the second stage, there were 1,124 inmates registered in the independent vaccination program. 111 inmates were not vaccinated for certain reasons. So in this second stage (independence vaccination), 1,013 inmates did not have ID cards who were vaccinated", he said when contacted by VOI on Sunday, August 15.
Yohanis also appealed that inmates who were free but had just taken the first dose of vaccination could come to the Salemba Detention Center to get the second dose. Or they can vaccinate at vaccination centers around their place of residence.
"With this COVID-19 vaccination, it is hoped that it can create herd immunity among the residents of the Salemba Detention Center", he said.
