Deputy Minister in the Presidency Pinky Kekana says vaccine hesitancy is preventing the country from focusing on economic recovery.
She led a webinar on government research into COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy on Thursday.
She said: “Vaccine hesitancy across the world is neither new or unique to COVID-19 vaccines and South Africa is no exception with it being a developing phenomenal in the country.”
Despite hesitancy still being an obstacle, Kekana’s indicated South Africa’s nearing the halfway mark for adult vaccinations.
“This is nowhere near the 70% of our population being fully vaccinated that we estimated we would be by this stage. At 49.86%, it is anticipated that the country should achieve the 50% within the next few days.”
