Zweli Mkhize blames Big Pharma for vaccine delivery delays

Zweli Mkhize blames Big Pharma for vaccine delivery delays The health minister says talks have been lengthy and difficult as the manufacturers of Covid-19 vaccines sought onerous terms BL PREMIUM UPDATED 14 April 2021 - 18:41 Health minister Zweli Mkhize has accused coronavirus vaccine manufacturers Johnson & Johnson (J&J) and Pfizer of making unreasonable demands that have delayed the delivery of shots to SA. The government faces growing pressure over its failure to begin rolling out vaccines to the general population. Despite having Africa’s biggest recorded Covid-19 caseload, SA lags behind in its vaccination efforts and has so far inoculated only 290,000 health workers with J&J’s vaccine under the Sisonke implementation study.

Risk of Covid-19 third wave within next two weeks is low, say SA researchers

Risk of Covid-19 third wave within next two weeks is low, say SA researchers But it is too soon to tell if more social interaction and religious gatherings over the Easter weekend seeded an increase in Covid-19 transmission BL PREMIUM 12 April 2021 - 17:24 Tamar Kahn The risk of a third wave of coronavirus infections in SA in the coming fortnight is low, according to an Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithm designed by a consortium led by Wits University. “The data is telling us the probability of a third wave is low, and is unlikely within the next two weeks, but these algorithms are not crystal balls,” said Wits Institute for Collider Particle Physics director Bruce Mellado, who is a member of Gauteng premier David Makhura’s advisory council on Covid-19.

Medicines regulator confirms J&J vaccine registration conditions restrict sale to state Most Read Most Read Most Read Most Read Most Read Most Read Most Read Most Read Only the national government can purchase and oversee the rollout of vaccines, bypassing the private sector BL PREMIUM 13 April 2021 - 11:52 Tamar Kahn SA’s medicines regulator has confirmed that one of the conditions attached to its approval of Johnson & Johnson’s (J&J) Covid-19 vaccine restricts its sale to the national government, Business Day has learnt. This means that neither provincial governments nor private-sector entities, such as large employers or pharmacies, can buy directly from the vaccine manufacturer, even if it were willing to sell directly to them. J&J and several other vaccine manufacturers have previously indicated they will only sell to the national, but private-sector players have been hopeful that this position will shift at some point.
