JAKARTA, Sept 11 (Jakarta Post/ANN): Fundamental problems continue to haunt Indonesia's Covid-19 vaccination drive even after the government hit the so-called milestone of 100 million jabs, about one fourth of the total shots needed to fully vaccinate the target population.

The goal of administering 100 million doses was achieved on Aug 31, about seven months after the program started, yet fully vaccinated people account for only a small fraction of the milestone.
