Louise Smith (24): I’m already vaccinated against Covid-19. I’m studying to become a pharmacist assistant and was afraid they would make it mandatory in order for me to finish my studies.
Marne Jordaan (19): I won’t get vaccinated against Covid-19 because it’s against my Christian principles.
Motsamai Malindisa (24): I will take the vaccine because I want to help keep my child and grandmother safe.
