The vaccination drive targeting over half a million teachers and support staff is expected to rollout from TODAY. The Department of Basic Education is aiming to innoculate 582-thousand teachers including administrative staff, volunteer food handlers and cleaners in both the public and private education sector. Its goal is to complete the exercise by 8th July as more vaccines are expected to be available this week. The rollout program for teachers has however come as the call to shutdown schools has been joined by COSAS, the Educators Union of South Africa and the EFF which has threatened to forcefully shutdown down schools by Friday.
