Protesters gathered outside the University of the Witswatersrand in Johannesburg Wednesday against Africa’s first COVID-19 vaccine trial.
We feel that our government is not supporting traditional medicine, is also not recognising the work of traditional healers.
The continent’s first vaccine trial for the coronavirus began in South Africa last week.
“We feel that our government is not supporting traditional medicine, is also not recognising the work of traditional healers, because there are many things that there are many, many medicines that traditional healers could produce that could help with the COVID-19.
So we feel that government is not supporting traditional medicine”, Seloane Mokgatsi, of the Traditional Healers Organisation said.
