SA expects the first delivery of Covid-19 vaccines only after March 2021, while Discovery Health says funding has been set aside for 2- million of its members to get the vaccine as it throws its weight behind a national effort to source a cost-effective supplier.
President Cyril Ramaphosa said on Monday evening SA expected to receive the first delivery of vaccines in the second quarter of 2021 under the World Health Organisation s (WHO) Covax scheme and the government was holding parallel talks with vaccine makers for a larger supply.
