[Thread] 1. #ZweliMkhize: The Sisonke programme is now finished. 478 733 doses of 500 000 doses were used. The leftover doses will be used by the SAMRC to conduct studies (HIV, people with comorbidities, pregnant women, etc). The doses can't be used for Phase 2.
2. #ZweliMkhize: We will receive another just over 300 000 #Pfizer doses by tomorrow morning. This will bring our total number of #Pfizer doses to 975 780.
3. #ZweliMkhize: We will have vaccinated 5 million people by the end of June, provided that the vaccine supply flow as anticipated. By the end of June we will have 4.5 million #PFizer doses and 2.2 #JandJ doses.
4. #ZweliMkhize: Our #JandJ doses can only be released once the FDA in the US has given the go ahead after an international verification. We hope to get finality this week.
5. #ZweliMkhize: This week there will be 87 #vaccine sites - 83 public sector sites and 4 private sites. The sites will be published on the SA coronavirus website. By the end of the week we will scale up to 200 sites.
6. #ZweliMkhize: As we speak sms's for vaccination appointments are being sent out. 488 sms's will be sent to people of 60+ and more to healthcare workers. You have to take your ID, passport or driver's license. People on medical aids have to take their cards.
7. #ZweliMkhize: If you miss you vaccine appointment, it will be rescheduled on the EVDS. But if you miss three appointments, you can't use the EVDS, you will have to go to a site or phone the COVID hotline.
For citizen's of 60+ the number of sms's should be: 4 288. Apologies, I left out the 2.
