Tongabezi, Livingstone Island, and Shawa Luangwa Camp celebrate being vaccinated

Green Safaris has been on a mission to vaccinate all of our teams across Zambia and Malawi. Since each of our properties is hidden in handpicked in wild, isolated locations, this has been a fun challenge. 

So we are very proud to say that every member of the Shawa Luangwa Team is vaccinated, every team member Living on the Edge at Livingstone Island is vaccinated, and every team member at Tongabezi and Sindabezi (apart from 7 people working behind the scenes and waiting on their vaccinations) have been fully vaccinated.

Green Safaris has been enabling these vaccinations with information sessions (to combat the spread of false news), and by bringing the doctors and nurses directly to our properties or providing free lifts to our team members. 

Our other properties are catching up but meanwhile, our teams have also been motivating their communities to follow suit with funky 'I have been vaccinated against Covid-19' T-Shirts. 

A large amount of misinformation was spreading around Zambia when the vaccines first arrived, largely shared via Whatsapp or Facebook. Luckily, since then our teams have been showing off their healthy, happy smiles and new look, leading to an influx in vaccinations in our communities and greater protection for all of our neighbours as well as our guests.
