South Africa's COVID-19 vaccination rollout is underway, with the country aiming to vaccinate around 40 million people by the end of 2021. The rollout began with healthcare workers and has since expanded to include essential workers, people over 60, and those with comorbidities. The country is using the Johnson & Johnson and Pfizer-BioNTech vaccines, with the single-dose J&J vaccine being administered to those aged 50 and above due to its ease of use and effectiveness against severe illness and death. The rollout has faced challenges, including vaccine hesitancy and supply constraints, but the government is working to address these issues and increase vaccination rates.
