AURORA
(Are You Ready to do a Research?)
OBSERVER SCORE CIMSA UNSOED
Research for making COVID-19 Vaccine in Indonesia is still in progress. The making isn't as easy as we think. To create an effective and safe COVID-19 Vaccine for Indonesian people, researchers need to pass several clinical trials before the Vaccine can be distributed. Whereas, society is waiting for the coming of this Vaccine and doesn't know-how is the process of its making.
To give society knowledge on how the process of making COVID-19 Vaccine and the updates of its making nowadays, Observer SCORE CIMSA Unsoed held a podcast entitled “Get to Know More About COVID-19 Vaccine”. This project aims to increase both society's knowledge about making COVID-19 Vaccine and the updates of COVID-19 Vaccine making nowadays that several researchers still conduct in Indonesia. Hopefully, by increasing society's experience, they can support this research and behave wisely in this waiting period.
