Criminal action is being taken against a group of anti-vaxxers who gathered around the Sea Point Swimming pool on Saturday in protest. Scores of maskless people carried around placards reading “stop medical apartheid” and “you can stick your new world order up your ***”, calling on people to “say no to the experimental jab”.
Police spokesperson, Joseph Swartbooi said that a case docket in terms of the Disaster management Act will be opened as the protest was unlawful.
“The protesters were peaceful and we confirm no damages or injuries were reported as Sea Point police monitored the movement of protesters. A case docket (DMA) will be opened as the march was illegal,” he said.
The protest at Sea Point was led by the World Wide Demonstration South Africa, a global initiative against Covid-19 vaccines. Its spokesperson, Clay Wilson said that this was their fourth protest and more was to come, “We are not anti-vaxxers, we are so much more than that. The title ‘anti-vaxxers’ is misleading and only serves to label and dismiss us, but that name has stuck and reluctantly we will wear it if need be,” he said.
Wilson said the “rally” was attended by both those who are vaccinated and those who are not. “What you saw was South Africans defending the integrity of their constitution. We cannot make educated decisions about these ‘vaccines’ if we don’t know what they contain. ‘The science’ is telling us that it mitigates the symptoms, however new data is showing that that isn’t necessarily the case. A lot more needs to be researched about this subject before we mass vaccinate.”
Data released by the provincial health department yesterday showed that during the week of August 14 to 20, when the Western Cape was in its peak of the third wave of Covid-19 infections, 2 455 people over the age of 60 were infected, of which 92% of people were not fully vaccinated. Of the 729 people who were hospitalized, 96% were not fully vaccinated.
