SURABAYA - East Java Regional Police Chief Inspector General Nico Afinta together with Forkopimda East Java inaugurated dozens of mobile vaccination cars for Quick Response Mobile. The car, which was initiated by Forkopimda Surabaya, is expected to accelerate the herd immunity target in Surabaya.

"For the time being, there are 22 rapid response vaccination cars that are ready to serve the people of Surabaya," said East Java Police Chief Inspector General Nico Afinta on the sidelines of the inauguration of the car at the Surabaya Heroes Monument, Monday, August 16.

Later, Nico continued, the car will travel around Surabaya to visit suburban communities, market traders, or serve people who have not vaccinated. Surabaya residents who have not been vaccinated can also call 110 or report to the management of the RT/RW, Bhabinkamtibmas, Babinsa, and puskesmas in their respective kelurahan areas.

"People can also call 110 or contact RT, RW, Babinsa, Babinkamtibmas or officers at the Puskesmas, to register for vaccinations. This car will go there, but remember to report first," he said.

The car, Nico continued, contained health workers, as well as members of the TNI-Polri and the Health Office. The target is people who are on the outskirts, who cannot attend the vaccination campaign, such as fishing communities, trading communities in markets, or on demand.

"It is possible that if all Surabaya residents have been vaccinated, this car can be used for the ranks of the Greater Surabaya agglomeration, such as in Sidoarjo, Gresik and in other cities," he said.

Nico appreciated the initiative from the Mayor of Surabaya and the entire Forkompimda, for this innovation. He hopes that all residents of Surabaya can be vaccinated.

"This is a passion for all of us in realizing deliberation, consensus, and mutual cooperation in dealing with problems, especially facing this vaccination.
