President Cyril Ramaphosa has urged political leaders to encourage their supporters to get vaccinated.
The President says that the more people are vaccinated, the less chances of the upcoming 1 November elections turning into a Covid-19 super-spreader event.
He also urged those, who host and attend political gatherings, to adhere to the safety and social distancing measures at all times.
