Overview

The COVID-19 vaccination was introduced in Indonesia in January 2021. The primary dose vaccination coverage exceeded the national target, namely 70%. The coverage for dose 1 is 86% while 74% (data as of 5 June 2023). However, the results of booster vaccination doses 3 and 4 were different, as they had not yet reached half of the total target. On the other hand, the COVID-19 situation remains uncertain in the future, with various possibilities: the virus's virulence will strengthen, weaken, or remain constant, requiring continuous immune protection for all individuals, particularly vulnerable individuals such as the older population.
