Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia– UII Hospital opens orders for the Covid-19 vaccine. This information was obtained from uploads to his official Instagram account.
For those interested, UII Hospital provides terms and conditions for the vaccine. One of them is the estimated chance of vaccine arrival in 1-2 months.
UII Hospital also provides a WhatsApp number for those interested in registering. CNBC Indonesia tried to contact the number and asked about the vaccine brand to be used and the answer was that there might be several brands such as Sinovac, Pfizer, and Moderna.
“There may be several brands (Sinovac, Pfizer, Moderna, etc.) but the Government will inform the government about what brands are available and have been declared safe, we will inform you later after the vaccine is available at the hospital,” wrote the UII Hospital vaccine registration party when contacted, Friday ( 11/12/2020).
In addition, the vaccination will be carried out for two injections and have a break of two weeks. The price is approximately IDR 450 thousand per injection.
In addition, patients will also go through screening. A number of parties have also not been allowed to administer the Covid-19 vaccine, namely people who have been positive for Covid-19, have chronic diseases such as heart disease, diabetes and hypertension.
Asked about whether the hospital could sell vaccines, Bio Farma Corporate Secretary Bambang Heriyanto said it was possible that UII Hospital was in the preparation stage only. He said a number of hospitals that made similar flyers had the same reasons.
“Maybe they want it prepared from before,” said Bambang.
He said that later there will be a one-data system then pre-orders. Ordering will also determine the quantity ordered.
For the timeline for the availability of independent vaccines, Bambang said he would wait for the results of new clinical trials after they were produced. Estimated testing is expected to be completed by the third or fourth week.
“The sooner the better, the dynamic. If the data completeness is faster, hopefully it can be faster,” he said.
“If it is an independent vaccine route, but the reporting is still in, if now in the planning process we have to go through one data. This means that the information system is one. To ensure that they have been vaccinated they must also receive the second dose,” he said. When contacted separately , The Government Spokesperson for the Vaccination Program from the Ministry of Health, Siti Nadia Tarmizi asked to ask the hospital directly. He also explained about one vaccine data that would ensure patients to get a second dose after the first injection.
He also stated that until now he had not yet talked about independent vaccines because he was still focused on the 1.2 million doses that were imported to Indonesia last weekend.
“If we haven’t talked about independent vaccines because we are still focused on 1.2 million, right? Independent vaccines are still under discussion and the lead is the Ministry of BUMN. For private hospitals, my advice is to ask them first, what kind of vaccine they will get. “said Siti.
