SURYA.CO.ID, SAMPANG – Side effects or Adverse Events After Immunization (AEFI) after the Covid-19 vaccination occurred in Sampang. Two inmates or inmates of the Class IIB Sampang Rutan actually fell unconscious after receiving the vaccination, and even had to be rushed to the hospital (RS).
The impact of the vaccination was experienced by the two inmates a few days ago. According to information, both of them fainted, then they were rushed to Dr. Mohammad Zyn Hospital and Kamuning Sampang Health Center.
But after receiving medical treatment in two separate places, now both are improving and carrying out their usual activities at the local prison.
The head of the Sampang detention center, Gatot Tri Raharjo through the Head of the Detention Service Subsidy, Syaiful Rahman, said that when they were vaccinated, both of them had gone through screening in the form of checking body temperature, blood pressure, and being asked about their disease history.
But both fainted because it was thought to be one of the side effects that often occurred because the vaccine made the immune system respond more to fighting disease or infection-causing later in life.
“Alhamdulillah, the two inmates have recovered and are healthy again,” said Syaiful, Sunday (11/7/2021).
Syaiful added that so far the residents of the Class II B Sampang detention center have received two stages of vaccination. From a total of 369 inmates, 218 people have carried out the Covid-19 vaccination process.
The 22 people were postponed due to illness, and the remaining 129 had not received the vaccination. “When the vaccination was carried out, some were refused because their condition did not meet the requirements, their blood pressure was high,” he explained.
To note, the vaccination program was held by the 0828 Sampang Kodim, which had previously coordinated with the Sampang Health and Family Planning Office (Dinkes and KB).
Meanwhile, one of the First Officers who is also the Commander of the 0828 Sampang Kodim Unit, Lt. M. Marlan, said that the dizziness of the two inmates was a reaction from the vaccine itself.
What is clear, before carrying out the vaccination, his party carried out the first stage of socialization and even screening of the target.
“Vaccination efforts were carried out, as a follow-up to prevent the spread of Covid-19, at the Class IIB Sampang detention center and minimize the potential for exposure to inmates,” he concluded. PRIMARY HANGGARA
