The Department has raised concerns that COVID-19 vaccines are being wasted due to the low number of people presenting for vaccinations.“We will lose somewhere around 80 000 doses. Every dose is a lost opportunity. Remember this is 80 000 out of 33-million. So we are not talking vast amounts, but every dose is a lost opportunity to protect somebody from this, so we are not happy,” says Crisp.

“So it is important to contextualise and not just look at the line items. The US Food and Drug Administration did come out and say it is less than a percent of these adverse effects that are listed here that were very serious. Otherwise, 96% of them were mild and people were able to recover,” adds Nyati.report indicating that Pfizer’s vaccine has over 1200 side effects, which were not disclosed to the public until last week.
