to be blunt with you south africa's presence or ram opposed says his country will receive $9000000.00 doses of the johnson and johnson vaccine office and again the one develops seneca studies have suggested it has limited effectiveness against the variant 1st identified that african union disease experts say leaders should still use astra zeneca in countries where the new taishan isn't present and the w.h.o. says it's still confident in the vaccine one and a half 1000000 covered 19 vaccine doses a set to be delivered to mexico in the coming week but even the sound of several indigenous communities are rallying against the government's inoculation efforts insisting that they won't get a shot manual. reports. then they happen a municipality in the highlands of chiapas appears so far to have been spared the ravages of the code 19 outbreak in mexico. the region is home to dozens of indigenous communities where local authorities have reported very few cases. it's for this reason many say they don't want the vaccine. here in our community everyone is healthy we haven't seen any deceased here that's why people don't want a back seat to the nationwide new coronavirus cases

each new vaccine whether it's as to seneca of pfizer or i think those will have to be assessed as part of that all out. and that was salim abdul karim south africa's leading infectious disease specialist speaking with me a short while ago let's look at some of the other developments in the pandemic british authorities say it's likely that people would need to receive a booster of the couvade $1000.00 vaccine and then subsequent annual vaccinations like the flu shot the u.k. like many countries is raising to inoculate its population in the face of new variants authorities in south korea's capital seoul have launched a testing program for pet cats and dogs after the country reported its 1st covert $1000.00 cases and a kitten test will be limited to pets showing symptoms of the virus who have been exposed to someone who tested positive and the u.s. has passed 27000000 cases of the virus the highest number in the world that's as president joe biden warns it will be difficult to vaccinate 75 percent of the population and achieve herd immunity by the end of the summer hj. northern and central germany have been hit by heavy snow and icy conditions with d

that particular clinic what about the stockpile of shoes seneca vaccines what's going to come to those. well a couple of weeks ago south africa did receive about a 1000000 doses of astra zeneca south africa has said that based on local studies it's not as effective against the new variant so it wouldn't necessarily be as useful as it hoped the efficacy had reduced to about 23 percent compared to johnson and johnson which prevents about 57 percent of severe moderate to severe cases of this new variant of covert 19 so for the meantime the government has said that they are looking at sharing the astra zeneca with other african countries through the african union depending on interest and i suppose how they could get those vaccines across the continent is just a 1000000 doses and for countries who are trying to achieve herd immunity it really is a drop in the ocean but i think the south african government in particular has been at pains to say it's not wasted we didn't waste money we didn't waste time and this is going to be put to use or admitted thanks for that update from johannesburg mexico plans to voice its concerns over va
