The Institute of Risk Management South Africa (IRMSA) has welcomed a renewed call by President Cyril Ramaphosa to accelerate the administration of Covid-19 vaccines and the establishment of a task team to consider mandatory vaccinations. “The laudable discovery by South African scientists of a new variant, coupled with the impending arrival of a fourth Covid-19 wave in December, has heightened South Africa’s risk climate considerably. In order to save lives and to respond to the impact of further strict lockdown on the economy, we must pick up the pace of vaccine dispensing,” IRMSA CEO Pat Semenya says.
