ABSTRACT
The Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak is still a big problem in the world of health. The high mortality rate of COVID-19 cases in Indonesia has moved the government to aggressively carry out vaccination activities in stages. COVID-19 vaccination activities are carried out to reduce morbidity and mortality due to COVID-19, prevent and protect public health, achieve herd immunity and strengthen the health system, maintain productivity and minimize social and economic impacts. The target of vaccination in the elderly is of particular concern, considering that around 50% of deaths from COVID-19 occur in the elderly. Purpose of service: to accelerate vaccination targets for the elderly. The vaccination for the elderly was carried out door to door in Ampeldento Karangploso District with a target number of 142 elderly. The results showed that 90% of elderly targets had been vaccinated door to door. The type of vaccine given is the Sinovac vaccine, which is carried out in 2 stages, namely the 1st dose with 129 elderly participants and the 2nd dose of 125 participants. Some of the elderly cannot be vaccinated due to comorbidities with hypertension and diabetes. The conclusion is that giving the Sinovac vaccine to the elderly can accelerate the decline in the pandemic and so that herd immunity can be achieved in less than 1 year.
