Mash East snubs COVID-19 vaccination

PEOPLE in Mashonaland East province have been urged to take up COVID-19 jabs after it was noticed that most of them snubbed getting vaccinated to contain the respiratory virus.

Last week, Marondera Provincial Hospital superintendent Celestino Dhege raised concern over the low uptake of COVID-19 vaccination in the province, warning that it might bring the response efforts to naught.

Dhege said this while receiving a donation of personal protective equipment (PPE) from the Zimbabwe Red Cross Society.
