DATA
Data indicates that the total number of people who received SINOPHARM first dose was 4,032 and the second dose was 2,357, which is equivalent to 58% of the clients who received their first dose, and people who received PFIZER first dose 4,992 and the second dose were 707 which equivalents to 14%. The aim was to reach all clients who received the first dose to receive their second dose, unfortunately, despite the door-to-door follow-up of clients who received their first dose done by the CHVs, the community hesitated and was not willing to accept the second dose, while few who were on transit during the first dose, could not be reached with the second dose. The program also noted there are areas that do not have CHVs to support continuous sensitization and follow-up of people who are eligible for a second dose.
