The community health center (Puskesmas) in Cilincing subdistrict, North Jakarta conducts a COVID-19 vaccination simulation on Tuesday (12/1/2021). The simulation includes registration, screening or health examinations, vaccination and post-vaccination observation. The observation lasts 30 minutes to see if there are any side effects after a person receives the vaccine. The government plans to begin the Covid-19 vaccination program on 13 Jan, 2021. President Joko Widodo will be the first person to be injected with the Covid-19 vaccine.

There is a hope that when vaccinations take place, the pandemic will end immediately. However, historically, no vaccine can stop a pandemic. Indonesia is now observing the vaccination probability.

Vaccines usually undergo years of research and testing prior to clinical trials and require additional time for evaluation before usage. However, in just a year, scientists and companies have produced a number of Covid-19 vaccines. As of Sunday (17/1/2021), 68 vaccines are in clinical trials on humans and 20 vaccines are in the final stages of testing.
