South Africa in Race to Roll Out Vaccine - Carte Blanche Tonight
Tonight on Carte Blanche, presenter Macfarlane Moleli asks: “As we face a second wave, and confirmed COVID-19 infections and deaths are rising, government finds itself in a race to roll out a vaccine. But will government be able to provide the vaccine to enough people before 2021 comes to a close?”

The rapid development of several COVID-19 vaccines has provided the world with some hope in the ongoing battle against the deadly virus. India, Israel and the United Kingdom have been quick out the blocks in the race to vaccinate millions of their population. But South Africa still doesn’t have a single dose of a safe vaccine and experts are warning that government is dragging its feet.
