TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - Jakarta Deputy Governor Ahmad Riza Patria said the city has administered a total of 7,106,816 doses of the COVID-19 vaccine as of Friday, July 9. He said that the doses include those given as first and second shots.
Speaking at the vaccination roll-out for people with disabilities—held by Hippindo, Friday—Riza Patria said that the government is quite confident it would meet the target of fully inoculating 7.5 million Jakarta residents by August 2021.
To achieve this goal, he said, the provincial government is injecting no less than 100,000 doses of COVID-19 vaccine per day. "Sometimes even 135,000 and 158,000 per day."
During the event, Hippindo Vaccination Center Committee chair Anne Patricia Susanto said that they have inoculated 70,000 people since June 7 this year.
"Right now we are giving Sinovac. Two weeks earlier we used AstraZeneca," she said.
