The Durban University of Technology in partnership with the Department of Health has launched a vaccine site for the students and staff members.
He said: “We have been assured that the vaccination is safe. It is important for us to come in our numbers, so things can go back to normal, we need to see each other during the contact classes, the campus needs to be lively again, and we need to have our graduation ceremony back.
“These are all the things that keep us going and encourage us to complete our courses, and we can only get back if we are protected from the virus through vaccination.” Ntshangase pointed out that the health department could do more to inform students about the vaccination to ease their fears. “They have done the first step of bringing the site to us, now they need to invest in finding out what are our fears where the vaccination is concerned, and correct misinformation,” he said.
The university said the site is open to all DUT students and staff members who are 18 years or older, and the site is open from 8am to 3pm on weekdays, from 8 to 15 September. “All students and staff are strongly encouraged to take this opportunity to vaccinate quickly and safely at DUT. All persons working at DUT, including contract workers, are also welcome and eligible to visit the vaccination centre. The message from DUT is clear. Don’t hesitate. Vaccinate,” said Khan.
