Merdeka.com – Premier Jatinegara Hospital (RSPJ), Jakarta Timur held a Child vaccination center in order to support the government’s program to accelerate the vaccination program for children during the COVID-19 pandemic. Premier Jatinegara Hospital Operations Manager, dr. Levina Avissa revealed that not a few children were constrained in fulfilling their vaccination schedule, so it was feared that it could affect children’s growth and development and could even cause outbreaks other than COVID-19.
“During the current COVID-19 pandemic, to maintain social distancing and also the comfort of children when children receive vaccinations, the Child Vaccination Center at Premier Jatinegara Hospital is limited to only 100-150 children per day,” said dr. Levina in Jakarta, Friday (7/1).
“Service time is Monday to Saturday from 10.00 to 17.00 WIB, we are grateful to have the support from the DKI Jakarta Provincial Health Office. So that this vaccination program can be utilized by children throughout DKI Jakarta,” he added.
Through the Child Vaccination Center, said dr. Levina, it is hoped that children will get perfect immunity, especially during the covid-19 pandemic. So that, he continued, children are healthy and active, so they can return to their original activities and parents don’t have to worry because their children’s immunity has been fulfilled.
“The Child Vaccination Center is in a healthy children’s clinic where the location is in the green area of Premier Jatinegara Hospital. The green area itself is an area where safety and comfort protocols have been maintained and are very safe and comfortable for children. We separate the pediatric clinic healthy with sick children’s clinics in two different areas, for the convenience of the children,” he explained. [ded]
