Vaccination has proven to be effective when it has been injected into the health workers and they have been shown to have a better immune system. People should not be afraid of vaccines, because they have no side effects. In addition, the vaccine already has a BPOM permit and MUI halal status.
The increasing number of corona patients has boosted the national vaccination program. The goal is that more people get the vaccine and don’t get infected with the corona virus. So that the death rate due to the Covid-19 virus can be reduced. In addition, if the national vaccination is completed quickly, herd immunity will be formed and can end the pandemic period as soon as possible.
Vaccines have also proven effective in reducing the risk of spreading the corona virus. This can be seen from the health workers on duty in Kudus, Central Java. The head of the Kudus Health Service, Hurricane Ismoyo, stated that 90% of the health workers there had recovered after contracting the corona virus. After recovering, they work again to serve the patients and heal them with all their heart.
The storm continued, only 5% of the total 6,000 health workers in Kudus were infected with the corona, and they only needed to self-isolate. This proves that vaccines are very effective in preventing the transmission of this dangerous disease. Moreover, health workers are the first to treat Covid patients, so they must increase their own body immunity.
Health workers in Kudus can recover quickly because they only feel mild symptoms of covid. The reason is because they have already received the Sinovac vaccine in the first wave of the national vaccination program, earlier this year. This is very encouraging because it shows the effectiveness of the corona vaccine on the human body.
When the health workers get healthy quickly, the community will benefit, because they can immediately be handled optimally. Imagine if there were no medical personnel in the hospital because they were infected with the corona virus, what about the patients? So it is natural that health workers get the first turn for vaccination.
When there is evidence, the level of public confidence will increase and they will gladly be vaccinated. After being vaccinated, the body’s immunity will increase and when exposed to the covid-19 virus, only mild symptoms. In a sense just like the common cold, and need adequate rest, medicine, vitamins, and nutritious food.
People are not afraid of vaccines because they have seen the reality for themselves, that vaccines can beat corona and ease their suffering. Patients infected with corona can recover quickly and will not be in danger of death. Especially now that there are new variants of the COVID-19 virus, such as B 117, which attacks twice as fiercely, so vaccination will be important.
If you experience mild symptoms of corona, you don’t have to stay in the hospital, because doctors are allowed to self-isolate. All of that thanks to the vaccine service that can make the person have higher immunity.
Vaccines have proven effective in reducing the spread of the corona virus. Because when health workers are healthy after being vaccinated, they will not be infected or transmit the Covid-19 virus to patients. So that the chain of corona spread will be broken.
When the spread of corona has stopped and everyone has been vaccinated, then we will be able to achieve herd immunity as soon as possible. This situation will be coveted, because everyone has a good immune system. So that life will run normally without any fear of the threat of corona.
The national vaccination program continues to be boosted to be completed as soon as possible. The goal is that the spread of the corona does not go crazy and people who have been vaccinated are safe from its fatal effects. Vaccination and maintaining health protocols are efforts to be free from corona as soon as possible..
