Anies urged the Ministry to bolster screening for the vaccine, as it was known to cause blood clots on its recipients.

The deputy head of Parliament’s Commission IX on demographics, health, manpower and transmigration Melkiades Laka Lena reiterated Anies. “The government should find the exact causes of his death and explain their findings to the public," he said.

"I have called on the government and the Food and Drug Agency [BPOM] to be careful in using the AstraZeneca vaccine, especially as a number of European countries discontinued its use.”

Indonesia has 6,410,500 doses of the AstraZeneca vaccine, which arrived in the country in three batches since last March.
