MAGELANG - Central Java Governor Ganjar Pranowo asked the implementation of the COVID-19 vaccination to continue to prioritize the elderly and residents who have a high risk.
"I ask that the priority remains for the elderly and those with congenital diseases, they may be injected first," said Ganjar after reviewing the implementation of mass vaccination at the Muhammadiyah University of Magelang (Unimma), as reported by Antara, Wednesday, September 8.
He said it could work with BPJS Health, because BPJS Health has data on BPJS participants who do have congenital diseases.
"It was tried yesterday in Semarang, then I asked for Banyumas to be made. If the elderly and residents with congenital diseases are a priority, God willing, we will be able to secure those at high risk first," he said.
Ganjar hopes that when the vaccine arrives, please finish it as soon as possible, don't wait. He expressed his gratitude to Unimma for organizing interfaith vaccinations, so that they will feel much safer later.
"It's good that 800 people a day can get 800 people at one point from the target of 5,000 people. My suggestion is to add a point, not just one point, it can be two points or three points, thankfully it can be five points. , so it's faster," he said.
He said that if the absorption is high, the center will add more. Ganjar said the achievement of vaccination in Central Java was around 27 percent.
According to him, the achievements for the elderly continue to increase but there are indeed some problems because they need socialization and so on.
When reviewing the implementation of the vaccination, Ganjar appealed to people who had undergone vaccination to remain disciplined in implementing health protocols.
