The Puncak Regency Government held a Covid-19 vaccination witnessed by Puncak Regent Willem Wandik, SE., M.Si, in the Negelar Ilaga hall, Puncak Regency.
It was seen that several members and officers at the Puncak Police, namely the Ilaga Police Chief, TNI officers, Liaison Officers, were also examined as well as the Assistant Regional Secretariat for Puncak Regency, as well as OPD leaders, as well as ASN in the Puncak Regency Government.
Puncak Regent Willem Wandik himself wants to be vaccinated against covid-19, but because his antibodies to the covid-19 virus are high enough after being exposed to covid-19, vaccinations are not carried out.
"The vaccine this time is aimed at public officials, because they will be in contact with the community, besides that they will carry out tasks outside the region, so that they are associated with areas that are prone to Covid. Therefore, they must follow the synovac vaccination, they can be immune to this virus," explained the regent.
He hopes that all officials will be vaccinated immediately so that they have antibodies against the covid-19 virus. "As scheduled, after ASN and TNI-POLRI, vaccines will be given to the public, in June, so that he hopes that the public will not be afraid, do not hear or read hoax news, because no country has yet been able to stop the Covid 19 virus. "In the near future, so that the vaccine is one solution to overcome the development of the Covid-19 virus," he said.
Meanwhile, the Head of the P2P Division of the Papua Provincial Health Office, dr. Aaron Rumainum conveyed that his appreciation for the Puncak Regency Government was more specifically for the Health Office, for being able to hold vaccinator training for medical officers and paramedics, using the APBD itself without waiting for funds from the center.
"This proves that the government really wants to protect the area, so that it is free from the Covid-19 virus. Puncak Regency is the only regency that uses its own money to hold vaccinator training for health workers, "he said.
"For that, I further advise the people of Puncak to be vaccinated, in order to maintain our status, namely the green zone, it is definitely safe, there is no risk," he said.
