Here is the list of SA's 465 active vaccine sites – and 15% are in Cape Town

• The official list of South Africa's active vaccine sites has been updated, for the first time since mid May.
• The department of health was previously unable to say why it could not provide a list of the locations where Covid-19 vaccines are being dispensed.
• The list shows that 15% of all active sites fall within the limits of the City of Cape Town.
• Just about 40% of the sites are in six big cities.
• The Northern Cape, Free State, and North West all still have fewer than 20 active sites, three weeks into Phase 2 of the vaccine rollout.

As of Friday, South Africa has 465 active sites where Covid-19 shots are being dispensed, a freshly-updated formal government list shows – heavily concentrated in South Africa's biggest cities.

Of the total, 15% of all sites are in Cape Town, with a count of 71 within its city limits. The second biggest set is in Johannesburg, which has 42 listed, making up 9% of the national total.

Between them, SA's biggest cities account for roughly half all the active sites, with another:

• 29 in eThekwini
• 26 in Tshwane
• 21 in Ekurhuleni

for a total of 196, or 41% of the national count.

On a provincial level, KwaZulu-Natal has the largest number of vaccine sites – nearly a quarter of the national total – at 115. The next biggest provincial count is 110 for Gauteng, and the Western Cape comes in third at 106.

Three weeks into Phase 2 of the rollout, three provinces remain at fewer than 20 active sites: the Northern Cape with 4, the Free State with 16, and North West with 19.

In other provinces the number of sites are:

• 23 in Mpumalanga
• 35 in the Eastern Cape
• 37 in Limpopo

Exactly where sites are located is critical for the over-60s currently eligible to receive vaccines. Invitations to automatically booked slots on the Electronic Vaccination Data System (EVDS) depend on having a vaccine site within 10km of your registered address in urban areas, and within 30km in rural areas.

Those willing and able to travel further afield for a booked jab could, in theory, alter their address details on the EVDS to fall in such a catchment area – if they knew where vaccines were being administered.

With some sites accepting over-60 walk-ins without appointments some of the time – at least for now – many people have sought a comprehensive list of vaccine sites to plan a day of shopping for such an unscheduled vaccine.

A total of 3,300 vaccine sites are due to be operational at the height of the vaccine rollout.

The list of active sites remained badly out of date for a week after cabinet published a post-meeting statement linking to the official list. It was subsequently updated without fanfare.

According to the department of health, the number of sites being brought online must be tightly controlled because of a shortage of doses, even though shipments from Pfizer significantly exceed the current rate of rollout, and that before what is thought to be the now-imminent release of a big batch of J&J vaccines.

[Adephi]

My parents got vaxxed today.

A family in our complex tested positive and they decided this is enough waiting. Went from one site to another untill they found a site that does walk-ins. My dad is quite proud of himself, showing of the jab site and his card. Hope they go for second one.

Now I just need my wife to get a jab and we will be covered.

That’s good news. My mom wants to go but just had an eye op so has to wait 2 weeks unfortunately.

Is the Second Shot Giving Young Men a Dangerous Heart Condition?
An official Israeli report released Tuesday found a striking correlation between COVID-19 mRNA vaccinations and a spike in cases of a heart-inflammation condition in young males, which appears likely to lead the country to revisit its recommendation that children receive two doses of the vaccine.

Here is the list of SA's 465 active vaccine sites – and 15% are in Cape Town
https://www.businessinsider.co.za/v...south-africa-remains-badly-out-of-date-2021-6
4 June 2021

• The official list of South Africa's active vaccine sites has been updated, for the first time since mid May.
• The department of health was previously unable to say why it could not provide a list of the locations where Covid-19 vaccines are being dispensed.
• The list shows that 15% of all active sites fall within the limits of the City of Cape Town.
• Just about 40% of the sites are in six big cities.
• The Northern Cape, Free State, and North West all still have fewer than 20 active sites, three weeks into Phase 2 of the vaccine rollout.

As of Friday, South Africa has 465 active sites where Covid-19 shots are being dispensed, a freshly-updated formal government list shows – heavily concentrated in South Africa's biggest cities.

Of the total, 15% of all sites are in Cape Town, with a count of 71 within its city limits. The second biggest set is in Johannesburg, which has 42 listed, making up 9% of the national total.

Between them, SA's biggest cities account for roughly half all the active sites, with another:

• 29 in eThekwini
• 26 in Tshwane
• 21 in Ekurhuleni

for a total of 196, or 41% of the national count.

On a provincial level, KwaZulu-Natal has the largest number of vaccine sites – nearly a quarter of the national total – at 115. The next biggest provincial count is 110 for Gauteng, and the Western Cape comes in third at 106.

Three weeks into Phase 2 of the rollout, three provinces remain at fewer than 20 active sites: the Northern Cape with 4, the Free State with 16, and North West with 19.

In other provinces the number of sites are:

• 23 in Mpumalanga
• 35 in the Eastern Cape
• 37 in Limpopo

Exactly where sites are located is critical for the over-60s currently eligible to receive vaccines. Invitations to automatically booked slots on the Electronic Vaccination Data System (EVDS) depend on having a vaccine site within 10km of your registered address in urban areas, and within 30km in rural areas.

Those willing and able to travel further afield for a booked jab could, in theory, alter their address details on the EVDS to fall in such a catchment area – if they knew where vaccines were being administered.

With some sites accepting over-60 walk-ins without appointments some of the time – at least for now – many people have sought a comprehensive list of vaccine sites to plan a day of shopping for such an unscheduled vaccine.

A total of 3,300 vaccine sites are due to be operational at the height of the vaccine rollout.

The list of active sites remained badly out of date for a week after cabinet published a post-meeting statement linking to the official list. It was subsequently updated without fanfare.

According to the department of health, the number of sites being brought online must be tightly controlled because of a shortage of doses, even though shipments from Pfizer significantly exceed the current rate of rollout, and that before what is thought to be the now-imminent release of a big batch of J&J vaccines.

I’m in Bali and received my first shot of AstraZeneca and expecting the second at the end of this month at no cost(even as a expat). Indonesia has a huge drive to get everyone vaccinated, no this dose not guarantee that you will not get the virus but it dose prevent been hospitalized due to infection.

Things I think SA could learn from even a backwards country like Indo:

1) 5 day quarantine for any international travelers with two PCR tests done while in quarantine ( they have pushed this to 14 days for people coming from India)

2) rapid antigen tests available in more places, here there is somewhere one almost every 3 blocks (current cost here is R150 per rapid test)

3) rapid antigen tests required before any local flights and PCR test required before any international flights

4) restricting local travel over national holidays, not popular but stops the mass movement of people over peak times.


I’m a firm believer in the availability of testing and the requirement of negative tests before any travel. The wife and family have just come over and they had one hell of a time in Cape Town just to get a PCR test at a price of R800 a shot. Think been stuck in a hotel room for 5 days with two kids was worse but that’s another story on it’s own.

At the moment people in SA are only getting tested if they show symptoms or fly internationally.

Better vaccine drive and more available testing sites is the best way to combat this pandemic in my opinion.

To give you an idea of the testing here, I’ve just flown out to one of our bases in west Papua:
1) get a antigen test before I leave Bali.
2) get a PCR test as I land in camp
3) get a antigen test before I leave camp to return to Bali
4) get a PCR test before I’m allowed back in the office in Bali

this might seem overboard to a lot of people and I agree it’s a pain, but, it catches a lot of cases before they get into contact with large groups of people.

Thus far no one has proven to me which shot improves the 5g reception of those that had it. If none of them work, I see no need to go far this shot at all. My reasoning is that as long as I maintain a blood alcohol level above 5% I’m good to go.

I have pneumonia again, I'm glad I got the pneumonia vaccines, it's nowhere near as bad as it has been. Getting a doctor to see me in the middle of wave 3...that was something else. Because I was coughing I had to use the covid side enterance, explaining to the receptionist that I know that at best I have bronchitis but I can feel when a lung isn't inflating properly, I however start freaking out at the sheer number of people having to use the covid entrance. luckily my doctor isnt a moron, can tell that it is pneumonia gives me meds and sends me on my way.

Honestly think we're in for a ride the next few weeks judging by the fact that 15 people in as many minutes were herded in, and the pharmacy said they had filled atleast 30 scripts by 11 am for covid patients.

No more walk-in vaccines at private sites if you don’t have medical aid – and maybe if you’re 80
https://www.businessinsider.co.za/w...o-medical-aid-members-at-private-sites-2021-6
7 June 2021

• The state will not pay for uninsured people who receive Covid-19 vaccinations at a private vaccine site without an appointment, the national department of health says.
• That means walk-ins with medical aid have access to every vaccine site, while those who are not part of a medical scheme are limited to the smaller subset of public health facilities.
• The only exception is people over 80, but then only if there aren't too many of them.
• The management of each site can decide whether to accept walk-ins, in the over-60 group currently being vaccinated.
• Uninsured people referred to a private site by the EVDS are not affected by the payment policy.

SA SCIENTISTS START GENOME SEQUENCING PROJECT TO STUDY COVID-19 PROGRESSION
https://ewn.co.za/2021/06/07/sa-sci...sequencing-project-to-study-covid-progression
7 June 2021

" The South African Medical Research Council (SAMRC) has launched a research study to investigate why some COVID-19 patients developed a more severe form of the disease, compared to others who experienced less severe or no symptoms at all...

To answer the question of COVID-19 disease progression, scientists at SAMRC’s Cape Town campus have begun sequencing the genomes of around 50 patients...

This means they will break down the patients’ genetic building blocks to see if they are predisposed to developing a more severe form of the virus..."

NOPE ... NOT SO FAST. HERE'S AN UPDATE
Teachers will not be vaccinated this week
https://www.capetownetc.com/news/teachers-will-not-be-vaccinated-this-week
7 June 2021

"The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has postponed the announcement on whether South Africa can release the Johnson & Johnson (J&J) Covid-19 vaccine doses from Aspen’s Gqeberha plant.

This is according to Bhekisisa, who reported that even though South Africa has procured 31 million doses of the J&J Covid-19 vaccine, the first two batches of 1.1 million and 900,000 cannot be released until the FDA has signalled the green light.

Bhekisisa adds that the education staff will not receive the J&J vaccinations during the week of June 7, regardless of the 480 000 doses J&J offered to South Africa as a replacement for some of the country’s potentially contaminated jabs...

If the shipment of nearly half a million J&J doses is cleared by the FDA, it is set to only make its arrival in South Africa this week, with an expiry date of 28 June. The shots would then have to be used within a couple of weeks, Bhekisisa reports."
