Vaccine Myth Busting with Good Things Guy
It’s been over 440 days since the pandemic really took hold in South Africa and we went into our initial lockdown. But we've made massive strides and are now in the second phase of the vaccine program in South Africa.
Brent Lindeque chats to Dr Saul Johnson to bust some vaccine myths.
"For me vaccinations are the next step in getting back to some sort of normal. But some are still quite sceptical, so I’ve invited Dr Saul Johnson to join us in a discussion about vaccines," Brent says.
Dr Johnson has a medical degree from the Wits, and a Master’s degree in Epidemiology from Columbia University in New York.
He lectures extensively on epidemiology and research methodology and has worked as a doctor, epidemiologist, researcher and project manager in various African countries.

Meanwhile, these days people are rethinking their relationship with nature. As the
effects of climate change ravage many parts of the world and we
experience some of the most extreme weather events on record, we must
urgently think of innovative ways to inspire collective action to
address climate change.
The latest sustainability research commissioned
by Mastercard has shown a marked increase in consumer passion for the
environment, as personal attitudes toward the environment evolve.
The study revealed that 98% of adults in South Africa are willing to take personal action on sustainability issues.
In light of this Mark Elliott, Division President of Mastercard South Africa and Peter Ndunda, Kenya Country Lead at Global Restoration Initiative, joined Brent Lindeque on Good Things Guy to discuss the Mastercard Priceless Coalition and sustainability efforts in being a force for good.
