One million Covid-19 vaccine doses, developed by AstraZeneca and supplied by India’s Serum Institute, have arrived in South Africa.
These doses are due to stay in a secure, cold-chain management facility in Johannesburg while awaiting further test results conducted by the National Control Laboratory.
Authorisation is expected to be granted between 12 and 16 February, at which time the doses will be delivered to provinces.
In the meantime, government is finalising its provincial distribution model which is likely to see the doses kept in a central vaccine centre for each province. ....

The barcoding gap: Can SA protect its Covid jabs from criminals?
Full track and traceability of Covid jabs won’t happen during South Africa’s vaccine roll-out, as the health department has not yet adopted the ‘overarching’ system that would make this possible.

SA’s first Covid-19 vaccines are on course to touch down at OR Tambo on Monday, but they won’t carry the security measures that could best protect them from criminals. 
The 1-million AstraZeneca shots, which have been produced by and procured via the Serum Institute of India, will be given to frontline health-care workers, so the vials are set to be transported to some public health facilities where theft of medicines has been prevalent. ....

The barcoding gap: Can South Africa protect its Covid jabs from crime?


South Africa s first Covid-19 vaccines, that will land on Monday, won t be barcoded, as the Health Department said they would be, making it easier for criminals to steal them.  
The AstraZeneca jabs will be given to health workers, so the vials are set to be transported to some public health facilities where theft of medicines has been prevalent. 
If the country adopts a security system called GS1, which it considered in 2017, it would make it significantly easier to prevent vaccine theft and falsified jabs from entering the supply chain.

South Africa’s first Covid-19 vaccines are on course to touch down at OR Tambo on Monday, 1 February, but they won’t carry the security measures that could best protect them from criminals.
The 1 million AstraZeneca shots, produced by and procured from the Serum Institute of India, will be given to frontline healthcare workers, so the vials are set to be transported to some public health facilities where theft of medicines has been prevalent. 
The Serum Institute and South Africa’s Department of Health have confirmed to Bhekisisa that the vaccines will not be barcoded.
A source at the largest producer of vaccines in the world said: “The government of India compels us as a manufacturer to use serialisation and traceability barcodes, but in these times exceptions are being made; shipments have to be rushed.” ....
