The meeting with the secretary of the Public Health Office of Sabu Raijua Regency was a follow-up to the meeting with the Head of Keliha Village, Paulus Nara Magi who conveyed about the condition of the people of Keliha Village, East Sabu subdistrict which is still difficult to receive vaccines.It is also almost found in most sabu communities so that the achievement of vaccination is still low.
(Meeting with the people)
The achievement of keliha village vaccination is only 50 people from a total population of 818 people.This is a concern of the village head about the emergence of community vulnerability in Keliha village, for that the Village Chief gathered the village officials both the village head and the chairman of RW and RT to discuss the reluctance of Keliha residents to be vaccinated.Delivered by Mr. Paul, the cause of public reluctance is the number of hoaxes from social media that make people become more afraid.For this reason, it needs educational strategies and campaigns to provide understanding to the community.YSI and the Village Government will conduct intensive education so that the public gets the right information about vaccinations.
