From December 24, Indonesia will start vaccinating children above six years old against coronavirus, Indonesian Deputy Minister of Health Dante Saksono Harbuwono said.

"Local authorities may start vaccinating children aged six to eleven years old if they have fulfilled the task of immunizing the population to 70%," he said, noting that the vaccination will be launched from December 24.

At the same time, 37% of the Indonesian population passed full vaccination against coronavirus.
