The large pharmaceutical warehousing and logistics providers are ready to put their extensive networks and IT systems at the disposal of the government, as are private hospital groups, pharmacies and medical practices as SA embarks on the programme, which will launch after the first doses land on Monday. Mines have also offered their extensive health-care facilities, which could rapidly vaccinate up to 3-million people in mining communities across SA.
