President Cyril Ramaphosa says details of government deals with vaccine manufacturers will be released as and when negotiations are concluded and when non-disclosure agreement terms have been lifted.

“We all need to work together to build confidence in the vaccine, to demonstrate its effectiveness and its safety and to emphasise its vital importance in overcoming this deadly disease.

“For its part, government will work to improve all its channels of communication, to keep the public regularly informed on the development of the vaccination programme, to provide information that is accurate and factual, and to continue to engage with and listen to the broad range of voices in our society.”He said this will signal the start of a mass vaccination campaign, the most ambitious and extensive in SA’s history.

A comprehensive rollout strategy and an accompanying logistical framework will be implemented in partnership with the private sector, civil society, traditional leadership, the religious sector and others, he said. “It is vital this is a society-wide campaign in which everyone is involved and no-one is left behind,” said Ramaphosa.

He said the doses South Africa will receive through its participation in multilateral initiatives, together with the agreements being made directly with manufacturers, will ensure the country has sufficient vaccines to contain the spread of the coronavirus.
