TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - Health Minister Nila F. Moeloek said that the government will provide free vaccination services for victims of the recent fake vaccine case. Nila said that the free service may be accessed by patients reluctant to go to hospitals or clinics.


"We provide the services in health centers and district hospitals," Nila said on Monday, July 18, 2016.


Nila added that the free vaccination service is expected to provide relief for the public. "In accordance with President Joko Widodo's instruction, we need to remain calm. No need to panic," Nila said.


Nila said that the Health Ministry has established 1,567 outposts in several areas for fake vaccine victims.


"The re-vaccination service is also provided so that mothers can remain calm because their children are being vaccinated properly," Nila said.
