JAKARTA - Expert Staff to the Minister for Health Technology at the Ministry of Health, Setiaji ensured that currently PeduliLindungi services had returned to normal operations after experiencing difficult access problems on Thursday evening. The difficulty of accessing the application that occurred this evening was due to the ongoing routine maintenance process. "I apologize for the inconvenience of PeduliLindung users. Currently routine maintenance is still impacting some PeduliLindung users," Setiaji said when contacted by Antara, Thursday, September 15. Earlier on Wednesday morning, PeduliLindung also experienced problems that could not be accessed by many users. However, not long after that PeduliLindung access immediately returned to normal. It turned out that this was repeated from Thursday afternoon until evening so that some users could not access PeduliLindung services either to check in public places or to access COVID-19 vaccine certificates online. The difficulty of access was felt by quite a number of prospective passengers on public transportation at train stations and many who uploaded the difficulty through Twitter social media. Currently, the difficulty of accessing PeduliLindung has been overcome and people can return to using the application normally. In anticipation of if PeduliLindung returns to problems, Setiaji suggested that people can download COVID-19 vaccine certificates to their devices so that later when they are active in public spaces, they can show their vaccination status more easily. "For the need to enter public spaces (if PeduliLindung is problematic) so that people can take advantage of the group check-in feature or show a vaccine certificate that has been downloaded," said Setiaji. As for ensuring PeduliLindung can work optimally on mobile phones with the iOS and Android operating systems, the public can download the latest version of the PeduliLindung application. With the latest version of the application, users can be more comfortable and have a better experience to carry out activities with PeduliLindungi. PeduliLindung was originally an application developed by the Central Government as an application to help deal with COVID-19. However, the Ministry of Health plans that in the future PeduliLindungi will become a more up-to-date application as a public health service application. So that it is not only related to COVID-19 but other health services can also be found by the public through this application in the future.
