Villagers from the OR Tambo district in the Eastern Cape believe that a coronavirus vaccine will be the only way to save lives in 2021, but they are worried about accessing it.
The vaccine under the COVAX regime is only expected to be available from the second quarter of this year.
The virus caused panic in rural areas when Majola Village in Port St Johns was declared a hotspot last year. Villagers are hopeful that 2021 will be nothing like the past year.
“We will be left as the youth with no one to guide us because our parents are dying because of this virus. We are asking government to fast track vaccination because our people are dying,” says a villager.
