Following meetings of the National Coronavirus Command Council and the President’s Coordinating Council, Cabinet has decided to move South Africa from Adjusted Alert Level 2 to Adjusted Alert #Level1 from midnight tonight. https://t.co/73LT2SWAWE — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
The current trends in the progression of the pandemic mean that a number of the restrictions in place can be eased, as per the recommendations of the Ministerial Advisory Committee on COVID-19. https://t.co/73LT2SWAWE — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
Fellow South Africans, When I announced on the 12th of September that the country would be moving to Adjusted Alert Level 2, I said that we would be reviewing the situation after two weeks. https://t.co/73LT2SWAWE — PolitiTweet.org

The Independent Electoral Commission is putting in place measures to ensure that every voter can freely exercise their democratic right without being exposed to unnecessary risk. https://t.co/73LT2SWAWE — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
Every one of us – from party leaders and organisers to supporters and elections staff – has a responsibility to ensure that the regulations are followed and all health protocols are observed during the election campaign. https://t.co/73LT2SWAWE — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
The involvement of all sectors of society in the national effort will become all the more critical in the run-up to local government elections in November. Campaign activities pose the greatest risk to a surge in new infections. https://t.co/73LT2SWAWE — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
We call on all businesses to facilitate the vaccination of their workers and encourage their workers to get vaccinated. https://t.co/73LT2SWAWE — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
We also want to acknowledge the huge number of volunteers who have helped and the many initiatives by local leaders. We must applaud the efforts that are being made by business to have their workers vaccinated. https://t.co/73LT2SWAWE — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
from our community health workers who have gone door-to-door encouraging people to go to vaccination sites to our staff members at the sites and outreach vehicles and in health facilities across the country. — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
The #VoomaVaccination Weekends are also an opportunity to acknowledge the immense contribution made by our frontline health workers and health service managers – https://t.co/73LT2SWAWE — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
You can walk into your nearest vaccination site with your ID or other proof of identity and be registered on the spot. https://t.co/73LT2SWAWE — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
The vaccination is free to everyone living in South Africa, whether you are a South African citizen or from another country. You can go to a government or a private health facility that offers vaccinations, even if you don’t have medical aid. https://t.co/73LT2SWAWE — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
The Deputy President and I, as well as Ministers, Deputy Ministers, Premiers, MECs, Mayors and Councillors, will also be out in communities on Friday and Saturday to encourage citizens to get vaccinated. https://t.co/73LT2SWAWE — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
Leaders from across the political spectrum, civil society, religious leaders, traditional leaders, labour and business will mobilise communities to stay safe by being vaccinated. https://t.co/73LT2SWAWE — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
The Department of Health has identified priority districts in each province based on the no. of unvaccinated people and the current vaccination coverage in each district. This will be the first #VoomaVaccination Weekend in a series of outreach programmes. https://t.co/73LT2SWAWE — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
Tomorrow, the 1st of October and on Saturday the 2nd of October, we will be opening vaccination sites around the country to reach over half a million people. https://t.co/73LT2SWAWE — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
Those who might not be able to get the vaccine during the week should take up this opportunity. — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
We know that getting to a vaccination site during weekdays can be difficult for many people, especially those who work, who have to commute long distances, or have family responsibilities. — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
The Vooma Vaccination Weekends campaign will be a countrywide drive to encourage our people to get vaccinated. — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
We have therefore decided to upscale our vaccination campaign by launching the ‘#VoomaVaccination Weekends’ campaign from tomorrow. https://t.co/73LT2SWAWE — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
While we have made important progress, and secured sufficient vaccine doses for the target population, our vaccination programme is still too slow. https://t.co/73LT2SWAWE — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
In recent months, we have seen an increasing number of younger people being hospitalised & dying from COVID-19. It is for this reason that from the 20th of August we extended our vaccination programme to all people in South Africa over 18 years of age. https://t.co/3VIx6p204p — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
To save lives and prevent our health facilities and staff from being overwhelmed, we have therefore prioritised those above 50 and those above 60 for vaccination. This does not mean that people younger than 50 are not at risk. https://t.co/X2nfw6DISq — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
We know that the older you are, the greater the risk that you will get severely ill with COVID-19 or that you will need to be hospitalised. We also know that the risk of death from COVID-19 is higher among the elderly than younger people. https://t.co/iVQ0m6s3Pv — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
To reach our goal we need to administer an additional 16 million vaccine doses this year, which amounts to around 250,000 first dose vaccinations every single workday of every week until mid-December. https://t.co/i72JtojDq0 — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
If we reach this target, the Department of Health estimates that we could save up to 20,000 lives. That represents 20,000 people – mothers, fathers, sons and daughters – whose death can be prevented if the majority of us chooses to get vaccinated. https://t.co/IhFaZhxuPo — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
We have set ourselves the target of vaccinating 70 per cent of the adult population in South Africa by the end of the year. https://t.co/DwhrkA7Wbz — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
Significantly, 60 per cent of South Africans over the age of 60, and 50 per cent of people between the ages of 50 and 59 have now received at least one vaccine dose. These numbers give us confidence and hope. https://t.co/IWpRqjKCNE — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
Since we launched our national vaccination drive, it has been gathering pace. To date we have administered over 17 million vaccine doses. Over 8.6 million people are fully vaccinated, which is more than one-fifth of the adult population. https://t.co/qLGy8prWYj — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
These freedoms, which we all long for, are within our reach. But we will only be able to get there if we are all vaccinated and we all continue to observe the basic health protocols. https://t.co/xp3enLpzvV — PolitiTweet.org
