Dear Colleagues,
We hope you are all staying safe. Remember that vaccines take about two weeks to become effective. Also, one must still practise the COVID-19 protocols. Social distancing, mask wearing and sanitising are all still essential until the virus spread is under control.
We have not seen a significant reduction in new cases but there has been a significant increase in deaths.
