Overheard in the Union Buildings amidst a cackle of hyena laughs: "Right guys the election‘s done, time to spike those numbers up."

As people become more educated about what is in the jab and its consequences, the uptake will come down.

One of the prerequisites of being a Politician in S. Africa. To lie with a straight face.

Protect the right to bodily integrity enshrined in the South African constitution and stop 🛑 mandatory vaccinations

Of course, the numbers will go up...and up...and up...until December holiday gets shut down. Guaranteed. 100%.

I see no social distancing on the right of the screen?!?

[morwenbezuidenhout]

And all the DISLIKES have been reset to zero.

What a joke.

[eulindareisinger]

What good does testing do??? Asking for someone 🤔

[fulufheloratshisindi]

People will soon get to jail for crimes about humanity

[siyandamakhalima]

GREAT social distancing on the right 🤦🏾‍♂️... Don't force us to take this shit!

[warrenwessels]

As for tourism. All tourists are vaccinated. And have to test multiple times before entering as well as leaving.

Nigerians are selling certificates for R600. Jab se mase poes

[jamesrobsonza]

The price for testing is absurd. For the poor its the better part of a week's savings at R1400 per test. Someone somewhere is making a quick buck off this.

If we want more testing done the price needs to be dropped massively
