From the explanation of the Surabaya Police Chief, Kombespol Johnny Eddizon Isir, S.I.K., M.T.C.P., said that the administration of the Sinovac vaccine to the extended family of Polri members and the public is one of a series of activities to celebrate Bhayangkara's 75th Birthday.
"The big family of the National Police who will be vaccinated includes wives/husbands, sons and daughters aged 18 years and over and also the general public," said Pol Commissioner Johnny Eddizon Isir.
Furthermore, the Surabaya Police Chief said that someone who had received the vaccine was not fully immune from the threat of the virus. There may still be a risk of contracting or being infected with Covid-19.
"Vaccination does have the benefit of building immunity and preventing severe worsening of symptoms when infected, however, it does not mean that it is immune, so it is still possible to be infected or infected. Therefore, let's continue to obey the health protocols with discipline," continued Kombes Pol Johnny Eddizon Isir.
Then the Head of the Sumda Polrestabes Suraabya, AKBP Sri Andriyani, S.Pd as the Chair of the Implementing Committee said that the implementation which had been held since June 19, 2021 until now has reached more than three thousand consisting of members of the National Police, extended family members of the Police and the community.
"We have vaccinated members of the National Police, Polri's extended family and the community as many as 3800 people for the phase I vaccine, then for the phase II vaccination, it has reached 2600 people," said AKBP Sri Andriyani.
The Polwan officer with the rank of Adjunct Senior Commissioner of Police (AKBP) hopes that in the future all the people of the City of Surabaya can receive vaccines, in order to accelerate the handling of COVID-19.
The participants who took part in the vaccine at the Surabaya Polrestabes were very enthusiastic and felt happy and benefited from the mass vaccination, according to one of them saying that during the COVID-19 pandemic, it is very important to keep the body's immune system healthy, one of which is being vaccinated.
"To Mr. Kapolrestabes Surabaya, I thank you for the mass vaccination. And I hope that Polrestabes Surabaya will be more prosperous and social in the future," said Dimas, a vaccination sympathizer today.
