Why is Covid on the rise again in Africa?

The World Health Organisation has said there is a threat of a third wave of Covid in Africa, describing new infections as real and rising. The strain named Delta and first identified in India has now been identified in at least a dozen African countries. The situation has been made worse by the slow pace at which Africa has been able to access and provide vaccinations across the continent. In the next episode of Africa Daily Alan Kasujja looks at why Covid is on the rise again.
