It seems that the number of South Africans, who are willing to vaccinate themselves against Covid-19, is gradually increasing.

According to the latest research by tech-company, M4-Jam, 49% of South Africans say they will take the vaccination as soon as it is available.

M4Jam CEO, Georgie Midgley says this is an increase of 17%, after only 32% in January indicated that they would opt for the injection.

She says nearly 3-thousand South Africans were interviewed for the survey.
