More to be done to vaccinate the country’s most-vulnerable against Covid-19

More will be done in the coming weeks, to see that the country’s most vulnerable get access to Covid-19 vaccines as soon as possible.

This, according to the Deputy-director General at the Department of Health, Dr Nicholas Crisp. Crisp says even though more than 7-million people have already been vaccinated, there are still too many people who could not yet access healthcare facilities to get their injection.

He says people in the 50 and 60+ age groups would also be prioritized for their vaccine.
