Pop-up vaccination sites will operate at 1,000 voting stations on Monday.
Health minister Joe Phaahla said at a media briefing early on Friday that the pop-up sites would target areas where the uptake of vaccinations had been low.
The pop-up vaccination sites will operate outside areas demarcated for voting. Those keen on getting the jab will be able to vote first and then get vaccinated.
