Gauteng should release updates of much-needed vaccinations
19 May 2021
The Gauteng Health Department should release detailed daily updates on the Covid-19 Phase Two vaccinations which cover the 1.3 million people who are over 60 years of age.
This would assist in assessing progress and identifying weak spots where more needs to be done to speed up the vaccinations.
According to the National Health Department, 39 371 vaccinations have been done countywide so far this week, but we do not know how many of these were in Gauteng and its various districts.
I am concerned by reports that many elderly people have received short notice to travel long distances for their vaccinations.
