South Africa is going to miss the December vaccine target, says Discovery

Medical scheme Discovery Health has shared the latest data from its actuarial team’s ongoing analysis of the trajectory of the Covid-19 pandemic and the real-world effectiveness of vaccines.

We still have a vaccine target?

You motherfuckers better go get your booster shots.

Does it really matter?


Even with those riots back in July we didn't have a massive rush, it seems that perhaps this pandemic is starting to fizzle?
Especially since we're on level 1 and a lot of people haven't really cared for sometime.

Lol..are we still vaccinating as I see/hear very little news on this these days?
Looks like the novelty has worn off and it back to the usual manner of doing things here...

That was obvious a few months ago. Even 50 percent fully vaccinated will be a stretch as not a single province has achieved 50 percent of the population receiving one dose yet and basically only the first 2 weeks of December will be proper vaccination days as the country clocks off from the 16th of December.

Pretty sure everyone who will voluntarily do it has done it. There won’t be much more vaccination unless it gets forced on people.

Maybe Ramaphosa should beg some of the richer countries to send their unvaccinated over, to be vaccinated here so they can make target?

Then again its been about 30 years since anyone over here's been concerned with making target.. why panic now all of a sudden?

Ah shut yer yap Adrian... don't you have a new Maybach to worry about seeing there's a semiconductor shortage so your order is being pushed out?

I got my second dose yesterday, had Covid 3 months ago, there is very little more I can do now - time to continue with life..
