Promises to ramp up vaccine rollout pace

From next week people aged between 50 and 59 will be able to register to get the COVID-19 vaccine. 

This was announced by government during a media briefing this morning, where bold promises to ramp up the country’s vaccination rollout program were made. The country’s currently experiencing a third wave of infections which have surpassed the severity of both the first and second wave. Government continues to implore people to behave responsibly and get vaccinated.
