UNCERTAINTY OVER LOCAL ROLLOUT OF COVID VACCINE

UNCERTAINTY OVER LOCAL ROLLOUT OF COVID VACCINE Some countries around the world are rolling out the COVID vaccinations, but there seems to be a lot of uncertainty as to when we will have access to it. Whilst it is undeniable that the COVID-19 virus has wreaked havoc on our nation, there seems to be differing points of view when it comes to the vaccine. In as much as the limited availability of the vaccine is concerning, some people are relived at the thought of a vaccine being developed and would be more than willing to take it as soon as they can. Others are more sceptical about the rushed development, costs, and the unknown side effects it could have in the long term. There are still so many questions and not very many answers. Only you can decide what you are prepared to do under these circumstances. Will you take it? Won’t you? What are your concerns?

The Gumede Case That Overturned Customary Laws

For decades, women in pre-2000 customary marriages were denied ownership of family property, their contributions invisible in the eyes of the law. The Gumede case changed that. By declaring these old rules unconstitutional, the Constitutional Court ensured that wives like Mrs Elizabeth Gumede are recognised as equal owners of the homes and assets they helped build.
