Indonesia’s Former VP Jusuf Kalla: Don’t Expect Help during Coronavirus Pandemic

If an advanced country discovers a Covid-19 vaccine by February 2021, then it will make use of it internally first.

“Whoever finds the vaccine next year, everyone will only be able to be vaccinated by 2022. So I’m sorry to say that for the next two years, we will have to wear masks. Thus, we need synergy, experience, information, and systems,” said Jusuf Kalla.
