South Africa anti-vaxxers harass health workers outside hospital

Vaccine hesitancy and resistance are hindering efforts in South Africa to contain a third wave of COVID-19.

The problem is being fuelled by misinformation and mistrust in the government.

South Africa started offering vaccinations to all citizens over the age of 18 from Friday.

A group of anti-vaccine protesters faced off with health workers outside Groote Schuur hospital in Cape Town.
