Gauteng Health MEC, Brian Hlongwa will visit the community of Mohlakeng in
the West rand where he will be introduced to the new pneumococcal conjugate
vaccine implemented across the Gauteng province. This vaccine is regarded a
major breakthrough for public health as it will decrease the infant mortality
rate among young children under five years and will also benefit HIV positive
babies and render them less prone to pneumonia.
