Here's what to expect when Covid-19 vaccines rollout
This week's Wednesday Panel on Breakfast with Refilwe Moloto takes a look at the challenges ahead for the rollout of the Covid-19 vaccines in South Africa in the coming months.
The rollout of the Covid-19 vaccines will, without a doubt, be the largest drive that humanity has seen.

Listen to this informative podcast panel with Aisha Abdool Karim, a journalist at Bhekisisa Health Journalism Centre and Professor Greg Hussey, Director of VACFA (Vaccines for Africa) and a member of the Ministerial Advisory Committee on Covid-19 Vaccines in conversation with Refilwe Moloto below:
