"The acceleration of the handling of COVID-19 requires mutual cooperation from all parties. The implementation of vaccinations must continue to be encouraged so that the herd immunity target can be quickly achieved, so that the community can be protected from the impact of the pandemic," said Arsjad, Saturday, July 24.

Arsjad said that this mass vaccination program is a tangible manifestation of Kadin in the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic. According to him, at this time health recovery is the most important factor so that the economy can recover.

"The performance of the business world is also determined by the strength of the health aspect. Therefore, we actively participate in handling this pandemic. In addition to accelerating vaccination, we are also raising assistance for oxygen supply, medical assistance, donations, including establishing a Mutual Cooperation Oxygen House," he added. .

The chairman of the Executive Committee of the Indonesian Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Firlie Ganinduto, said that the target of 15 thousand vaccination recipients, apart from coming from the institutions involved, is also from direct registration at the site for the general public who meet the requirements.

According to Asjad, recently, Kadin has also collaborated with SKK Migas and the upstream oil and gas industry to help procure seven ISO tanks and 1,500 oxygen cylinders.
