Para Tokoh Diminta Gencar Sosialisasikan Vaksinasi

JAYAPURA – Pemerintah Provinsi Papua mendorong tokoh agama, adat dan pemuda, untuk gencar mensosialisasikan vaksinasi COVID-19. Hal demikian bertujuan mendukung program pemerintah untuk mencapai herd immunity.

“Kita mendorong semua tokoh untuk gencar melakukan vaksinasi. Sehingga kita bisa mencapai kekebalan kelompok terhadap pandemi corona,” terang Asisten Bidang Perekonomian dan Kesejahteraan Rakyat Setda Provinsi Papua Muhammad Musaad di Jayapura, Selasa.

Musa’ad berharap semua warga di Papua agar dapat dengan sukarela melakukan vaksinasi jelang pelaksanaan Pekan Olahraga Nasional (PON). Sebab warga yang sudah vaksinasi bisa menonton langsung setiap pertandingan di seluruh venue.

“Gubernur Lukas Enembe kemarin sudah menyampaikan warga yang tidak divaksinasi berarti tidak bisa menonton pertandingan PON XX”.

“Bahkan ada kebijakan dari pihak penyelenggara bahwa relawan PON yang tidak divaksinasi juga akan dicoret namanya. Untuk itu, kita minta supaya warga bisa segera melakukan vaksinasi,” harap ia.
