Public Vaccination by Indonesian President Joko Widodo

In hopes to raise awareness and rally more supporters of the vaccination, Indonesian President Joko Widodo made a public showing of him getting his first COVID-19 vaccination on January 13, 2021. The one administering the vaccination is the head doctor of the president’s medical team, Dr. Abdul Muthalib. As seen on the red banner behind the seated president, the text states that vaccination is safe and halal (safe for those practicing Islam). These articles were personally translated.
