ABSTRACT

WHO (World Health Organization) has officially declared the coronavirus (Covid-19) as a pandemic. The Covid-19 virus causes symptoms such as fever and cough, and most recover within a few weeks. But for some people who are at high risk (the elderly and people with chronic health problems, such as heart disease, high blood pressure, or diabetes), the coronavirus can cause serious health problems. There are two main routes of transmission of COVID-19, namely respiratory droplet transmission and close contact transmission. In the context of dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic, it is not only implemented in terms of implementing health protocols but also interventions with vaccinations as part of efforts to prevent and control COVID-19. This mass vaccination activity aims to form herd immunity and reduce the mortality rate due to COVID-19 in the community. The type of vaccine used in this mass vaccination activity is Moderna. The number of respondents who participated in this activity was 1,581 people. The results of the service found that the number of people who registered for Pcare was 1,581 people, consisting of 60 teenagers, 1497 adults, and 24 elderly people, 1,536 people were given the vaccine, 45 people were delayed.
