Vaccination coverage is expected to increase, as people’s access to COVID-19 vaccines will be expanded. However, this must be complemented by a guarantee of supply availability and smooth distribution of vaccines.

JAKARTA, KOMPAS — People who are categorized as vulnerable but do not have a citizenship identification number (NIK), can now take part in COVID-19 vaccination. Vaccines will be given at certain locations agreed by the Population and Civil Registration Offices at the regional level, while at the same time, participants can also obtain an NIK.
