TRIBUNPEKANBARU.COM, PEKANBARU – The rubella and measles vaccine delivery program in the city of Pekanbaru still faces a number of obstacles.

The MR vaccination campaign by the health unit in schools is not always going well.

Even with data from the health office in Pekanbaru City (Diskes), as long as the MR vaccine program is implemented, 20 schools in Pekanbaru are currently refusing to implement MR vaccines in their schools.

The acting director of the Pekanbaru City Health Bureau, Indra Pomi, revealed on Wednesday (28/11/2018) that most of the schools that refused the MR vaccine were private schools under the auspices of the foundation.

"Yes, indeed, most of them reject basic schools.If we can gather up to 20 schools in total, we will refuse them," he said.

Despite being rejected, he will continue to make efforts to synthesize the implementation of MRI vaccines in these schools.

Among them, cooperating with several cross-cutting sectors, such as the office of education and the Ministry of Religion of the city of Pekanbaru.

Indra Pomi added that currently, the implementation of the MR vaccine in Pekanbaru only reaches 27% more.

This figure is far from the Department of Health's goal of plus or minus 95%.
