The Department of Health announced on Monday that the Lebombo and Ficksburg borders will continue to provide vaccination services until 15 January.

The campaign began on December 23, 2021 to provide vaccination services through pop-up sites during the festive season, targeting people travelling along major routes and cross border.

“The border post based vaccination sites will enable people to conveniently vaccinate while waiting in the queue to cross the border. There is no need to register beforehand and anyone living in the area where these border posts are situated will be able to receive vaccination services including the booster shots, as long as they produce any form of verifiable identity document, passport or birth certificate, especially children between 12 and 17 years old,” said National Health spokesperson Foster Mohale.

He stated that vaccines remain the most effective weapon against severe illness, hospitalisation and death from Covid-19 infection.

He urged people to continue practicing non-pharmaceutical interventions.
