Gauteng residents have been urged to vaccinate in order to beat the fourth wave of coronavirus. The Gauteng Health Department also said it would use this weekend’s voter registration weekend to urge residents to get vaccinated against the virus.
“The quicker we can vaccinate at least 10 million people in the province the sooner the Gauteng Province can accelerate the implementation of our Economic Reconstruction and Recovery Plan,” said Kekana.
“When many people are vaccinated the country can return to some form of “normality” and people may return to the things they love and can enjoy the festive season with family and friends. “The vaccination programme is open to all people in South Africa, whether or not they are South African citizens. “As many people as possible must get vaccinated so that we can return to the things we love and enjoy the festive season with family and friends,” he said.
