Outrage over SA’s plan to vaccinate prisoners first before ordinary citizens By Sisonke Mlamla Share Cape Town - Outrage is brewing over the government’s decision to vaccinate awaiting trial and sentenced prisoners before ordinary citizens, when vaccines become available. Community safety standing committee chairperson in the Western Cape Legislature, Reagan Allen said it was not a good idea to vaccinate prisoners before ordinary citizens. “I acknowledge that correctional centres may be prime sites of the spread of the pandemic, on account of confinement and overcrowding. “This brings the issue back to the unsanitary and unsafe conditions in our prisons, which are not recent, nor a result of the virus.”
