Vaccination Requirements Related to Health Conditions
You must’ve already known that one of the most important requirements to get vaccinated is to be in great health. However, if you have a history of anaphylaxis, currently undergoing treatment, or are experiencing symptoms of Covid-19, then you need to recover first before getting vaccinated with a doctor’s approval.
Shortly before being vaccinated, healthcare workers will check your health condition by asking a few questions. Tell the healthcare workers if you have certain conditions, especially if you have an immune disorder or are pregnant. After that, they will determine whether you are safe to be vaccinated or not. Don’t be disheartened if they don't recommend you to be vaccinated because keeping you safe and healthy is the main priority.
Vaccination Requirements Based on Vaccine Type
Moderna and Pfizer vaccines in Jakarta are prioritized for individuals who have a weak immune system. If you have these conditions, please bring a letter of recommendation from a doctor and show it before vaccination.
