Go vote and get vaxxed: More pop-up jab sites to open at voting stations in Gauteng
The Gauteng provincial government will set up 94 mobile pop-up vaccination sites at selected voting stations on Monday during the local government elections.
These pop-up sites will be spread across all five districts and will be operational throughout the day.
"Bring your ID or birth certificate or police signed affidavit confirming your identity to the vaccination site,” says Health Department spokesperson Kwara Kekana.
"The team will register you on EVDS and vaccinate you on the spot.
"All eligible people are encouraged to get vaccinated ahead of the fourth wave to ensure that they are protected from severe illness, hospitalisation, or death in the event that they contract the coronavirus.
"With the final local government elections campaign happening at the moment, all those involved in the campaign are reminded about the need to continue to adhere to Covid-19 safety protocols as mass gatherings remain potential super-spreaders of the virus.
"Even though most gatherings are held outdoors, the risk is still high when large crowds gather.”
