Discovery Health's Chief Commercial Officer, Ronald Whelan, says the company is working closely with both government and the private sector to ensure the entire country receives these vaccinations.  

"Discovery has allocated funding for vaccinating all members of the scheme," he said.

"In fact, we got board approval a good six weeks ago on that, secondly it will be for all members of the medical scheme but I think I should mention that we will need to follow strict prioritisation criteria."
