World-renowned virus hunter, virologist and bioinformatician, Prof. Tulio De Oliveira from KRISP at UKZN joins us to answer any COVID-19 related questions you might have.
In today's session with him he answers these:
-How much vaccine efficacy testing has been done on pregnant women?
-The UK is experiencing a surge in cases, do you think it’s wise to lift restrictions? Is this where the vaccine will actually prove it’s value?
-There is a social media post doing the rounds that the Delta Variant is caused by vaccines being administered, is this true?
- Most vaccines go through years of testing, why has the cCOVID-19 vaccine been developed so much quicker and are we sure that in years to come there won't be side effects because of this quick development.

Take a listen as he answers all these extensively.
