Stavros Nicolaou, CEO of Aspen Pharmacare, which is packaging 25-million doses a month of J&J vaccines in SA, said most of the vaccines bound for South Africa would now go to the rest of the continent.
Nicolaou, who is also chairperson of public health at business lobby Business for South Africa , said deliveries would likely be deferred until the first quarter of next year.The AU and J&J did not respond to an email seeking comment. A Pfizer spokesperson said: “We remain adaptable to individual countries' vaccine requirements while continuing to meet our quarterly commitments as per the South Africa supply agreement.”“There is a fair amount of apathy and hesitancy,” said Shabir Madhi, who led the clinical study for the AstraZeneca Covid-19 vaccine in SA.
To ramp up vaccinations, the government has launched pop-up vaccination centres and sought help from community leaders. It has also opened inoculations to children aged 12 to 17.
