Still said Fadly, after the vaccination was injected into his body, there were several taboos that should not be done. One of them is taking several types of drugs.
“There is a prohibition, what I remember is that one type of medicine is not allowed to be eaten, because it can reduce immunity. But other activities are allowed, even after being vaccinated I will continue again,” he said.

It is not without reason that Fadly wants to participate in the clinical trial. Family safety is the main reason.
The reason is, his activity as a motorcycle taxi online considered quite vulnerable to exposure to the corona virus.
“The biggest reason for me and my family. I work as an online driver, the risk of being exposed is quite large. If there is a vaccine, I will definitely participate, because I don’t want to bring the virus home, especially when there are three small children,” he said.
He also hopes that his participation as a volunteer can improve his physical condition so that he is immune from the Covid-19 virus.
“This is a free vaccine, so come along. If later it’s complicated. After seeing the effect, there’s nothing, come along,” he said.
