Coronavirus: 'COVID-19 only takes white people': Researchers battle disease myths in South Africa

In South Africa, three of the most promising vaccines are being tested in cities throughout the country, with 2,000 participants trialling an inoculation developed by Oxford University's Jenner Institute. The study was recently paused after one person in the UK fell ill, but the trial has resumed with participants at Johannesburg's giant Baragwanath Hospital receiving the second part of this two-dose vaccine this week. 'Do you think this vaccine could work?' I asked Bonginkosi Ntombela, who lives in the township of Soweto.
