Indonesia reaches 100 million Covid vaccine doses as curbs easedStudents wait to receive the Sinovac Covid-19 coronavirus vaccine at a high school in Surabaya on Wednesday. (AFP photo)Indonesia has administered 100 million doses of Covid-19 vaccines, setting a milestone that would help it ease restrictions further to revive the economy. The government has struggled to meet its goal of giving out 2.5 million doses a day in August and September, reaching just about a million a day. The goal of administering 100 million doses daily was reached on Aug. 31 as targeted, despite much of the vaccine supply arriving only in August and September. Despite lacking its own vaccine production, Indonesia has secured 86% of the 430 million doses needed for its mass vaccination program.
