Vaccinate this weekend for a safer December
ROSEBANK – This Saturday Netcare vaccination sites will be open at Netcare Milpark Hospital in Johannesburg.
Members of the community who have not yet been vaccinated and wish to get a jab this Vooma Vaccination Weekend, are advised to visit Netcare Milpark Hospital in Johannesburg.
This after President Cyril Ramaphosa on Wednesday announced the nationwide mass vaccination drive named Vooma Vaccination Weekend. The initiative brings together the public and private health sectors, organised labour and business as well as community- and faith-based organisations, to help speed up the pace of rollout so that more people will benefit from the Covid-19 vaccination.
In support of the President’s call to accelerate South Africa’s vaccine uptake, Netcare is making it even easier for those who have not yet been vaccinated to do so outside of the working week.
This forms part of the company’s bid to ensure more people have protection against Covid-19 ahead of the busy holiday season and a possible fourth wave.
This Saturday, Netcare vaccination sites will be open at Netcare Milpark Hospital in Johannesburg, Netcare Lakeview Hospital in Benoni, Netcare St Augustine’s Hospital in Durban, and Old Mutual Park in Pinelands, Cape Town, from 08h00 to 16h00, and a pop-up site at Mams Mall in Mamelodi, Pretoria.
“We are trying to make it as easy and convenient as possible for people who may find it difficult to take time out of the working week to have their Covid-19 vaccination,” said Mande Toubkin, general manager, emergency, trauma, transplant, and corporate social investment at Netcare.
“In the past 20 weeks, Netcare vaccination sites have made great strides in providing life-saving protection against Covid-19 for healthcare workers and members of the public, and we are looking forward to vaccinating many more individuals this weekend.”
