Jakarta, implementation of National Immunization Week (PIN) in Papua province until March 16 only reached 39.28 percent.
Papua provincial government also asked for a PIN implementation was extended until March 26.
"At this time the H-8 of March 16, we had 39.28 percent coverage," said Ahmad Yuri, who is responsible PIN 2016 Papua Provincial Health Office.
Low coverage in Papua PIN implementation due to the difficulty of the stricken officers reach inland. "Indeed, the national per March 15 execution PIN 2016 has ended, but we are still given the opportunity to make sweeping (netting) of children under five who had not taken to the Posyandu. So the officer PIN visits from house to house," Yuri said when met detikHealth in Jayapura, Friday (18/03/2016).
