[Thread] 1. What's happening with our #VaccineRollOutSA doses — will we have enough and are we reaching the right people?

Nicholas Crisp, @healthza:
We crossed the 7 mil mark for vaccine doses administered this week, but we're not yet reaching enough 60+ (most vulnerable).
2. Crisp:
1. 80% (4, 416, 391) of 60+ have been vaccinated with at least one dose
2. 15% (727, 839) of 50+ have been vaccinated with at least one dose

@healthza's goal for Aug: 1 out of 7 vaccinations has to be for 60+
3. Crisp:
We're not reaching the desired public/private mix for jabs: there is far more capacity in the private sector than what we're currently using

Below is a screen grab from @healthza's dashboard that shows a breakdown of the % of jabs done at pub/priv sites on Thu

[Thread]. 1. Why has @HealthZA not published a list of KZN #VacccineRollOutSA sites that are open? Because they're concerned such a list might get used by looters to decide where to go next. bhekisisa.org/health-news-so…
2. 90+ pharmacies (some = vaccination sites) have been looted in #UnrestSA. How many #CovidVaccines have been stolen? We don't know the exact amount, but @healthza says it's a small number, as smaller sites mostly receive daily stock from warehouse. bit.ly/3ifMciT
3. Will @healthza reach its target of 250 000 jabs/day this week? No, it's unlikely because of #UnrestSA. Most urban KZN sites are closed (under normal circumstances they do about 40 000 daily jabs, now they do 4000). They can only reopen when it's safe. bit.ly/3ifMciT
