Looking at the 1 million figure, the Minister of Health stated that the public and government must work hard to overcome the pandemic. In order to stop the transmission of Covid 19, the Indonesian government will also vaccinate the Indonesian population. Even though the vaccine has been given, other efforts continue to be made by health experts and the public to end the increase in the Covid-19 virus. In several countries including Indonesia, the government has made health guidelines and protocols to deal with the Covid-19 virus. The results of research conducted by Fauziah, E. et al.
