Meanwhile, the vaccination roll-out continues around the province as hundreds of seniors make their way to vaccination centres. According to Western Cape Premier, Alan Winde the province has been scaling up its vaccination roll-out, by opening up more sites every week.
“This scale-up is necessary because we need to make sure our roll-out keeps up with the supply of vaccines to the Western Cape. These supplies arrive weekly.”
