TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - The Indonesian Institute of Sciences (LIPI) on Thursday had called for the public to remain disciplined with the health protocols in the near future during the nationwide COVID-19 vaccination program.
“Throughout the vaccination, people are asked to continue abiding by the health protocol,” said LIPI Head of Applied Genetic Engineering and Protein Design Laboratory, Wien Kusharyoto.
Wien made it clear that the vaccination will take an extended amount of time to complete due to its distribution that will be designed to provide for the millions of Indonesians.
In terms of priority, the COVID-19 vaccine will be given to those who are at a high risk to be exposed to the coronavirus which means healthcare workers will be one of the first receivers for the vaccine. He also asserts that the vaccine’s immunity against the virus is still unknown.
