He also checked vaccinations in a number of locations via video teleconferencing. The former mayor of Solo hopes that more residents will follow the Covid-19 vaccination. He also asked the public not to be careless even though they had received the Covid-19 vaccine. “Even though I was vaccinated, I was also entrusted with it, I still wore a mask, kept my distance, and also avoided crowds.
