Discovery Health has allocated funding for its members to get the Covid-19 vaccine, while a local rights group is demanding a plan for equitable access.
The Health Justice Initiative (HJI) says a national allocation plan is needed to ensure the equitable distribution of vaccines in South Africa.
This comes after Discovery Health announced that it would be allocating funding for its members to receive the Covid-19 vaccine when it becomes available in SA. You can t have a situation where an ordinary member of Discovery Health gets a vaccine before a health worker at Groote Schuur hospital , warns the head of the HJI, Fatima Hassan.
