# Minister of Agriculture John Steenhuisen says two million doses of the foot and mouth disease vaccine has arrived in South Africa, with distribution to provinces set to begin soon. He says this is part of a wider effort to contain the outbreak and regain disease-free status to reopen red meat export markets. Additional vaccine doses have also been secured from Argentina, pending approval. Vaccines will be allocated based on risk, while additional doses are reserved for key sectors like dairy, feedlots and pigs.
