Undoubtedly, the Covid-19 pandemic and resultant lockdowns crippled the South African economy. For months, various sectors battled to stay alive due to various restrictions. Even now, the tourism and alcohol industry – to name a few – are still trying to bounce back from last year. But, as Mike Schussler writes below, the South African economy was in a spot of bother even prior to the Covid-19 pandemic. While he says that the country should see some bounce back, the economy is in deep trouble. – Jarryd Neves

(March 14, 2021 / Israel21C) Israeli humanitarian aid agency IsraAID dispatched a medical, logistical and psychosocial team to Eswatini (Swaziland) on March 8 at the invitation of the Eswatini government to support the southern African country’s upcoming national COVID-19 vaccination campaign.
The pandemic has claimed the lives of several Eswatini leaders, including Prime Minister Ambrose Dlamini. The impoverished country, which borders South Africa and Mozambique, has the highest COVID-19 death rates in Africa and the highest HIV prevalence in the world.

A British expat is helping to mastermind the first operation aimed at sharing Israel’s vaccine expertise across the developing world.
And as Tamar Kosky Lazarus directs the aid trip she helped plan from mission control in Tel Aviv, another British-Israeli, epidemiologist Michael Edelstein who recently relocated from London to Israel, is part of the team getting to work in Africa.
Kosky Lazarus, 39, is senior development director at IsraAID, a non-profit organisation that has 350 staff helping in crisis and post-crisis spots. This week it launched what it says will be the first of several vaccine-focused aid operations and sent a team to the small African country of Eswatini (formerly Swaziland).
