South Africa receives largest share of Africa’s Lenacapavir doses: Motsoaledi

Health Minister, Doctor Aaron Motsoaledi says South Africa has received the lion's share of Lenacapavir doses on the continent.

Nine countries in sub-Saharan Africa including South Africa, Zimbabwe and Zambia have secured access to the drug.

The new injectable HIV/AIDS prevention drug was officially rolled-out in Mpumalanga yesterday.

Motsoaledi says that the drug is expensive but a global fund has assisted in providing the continent with two-million doses.
