A Ministry of Health survey shows that the younger a person is, the lower their understanding of the coronavirus vaccine. This has led to lower acceptance rates and willingness to pay for the vaccine.

Specifically, only 69% of respondents aged 18-25 had heard about the coronavirus vaccine. Of those, only 58% were willing to receive it. Furthermore, only 30% of respondents aged 18-25 were willing to pay for the vaccine.

Meanwhile, 85% of respondents over 65 had heard about the coronavirus vaccine. Of those, 73% were willing to receive it, and 49% were willing to pay for it.

The Ministry of Health conducted the survey in collaboration with the Indonesian Technical Advisory Group on Immunization (ITAGI), with support from UNICEF and WHO. The online survey involved over 115,000 respondents across 34 provinces from September 19-30, 2020.

The government urges the public to continue practicing the 3M's (washing hands, wearing masks, and maintaining distance) to stop the spread of the coronavirus.
