Health Minister Zweli Mkhize says there is currently no vaccine for the coronavirus. This comes as the US gives the go-ahead to test a malaria drug called Chloroquine as a treatment for coronavirus.

says the real war right now is the tracing of contacts. “We have recruited close to 2000 tracers who are coordinating the system so that we are ultimately able to do this quickly,” he says.Mkhize says there are many more coronavirus test kits needed in the country as the department aims to conduct thousands of tests daily.

“We’re looking at how to increase the testing capabilities so that we can test as many people as possible. We have been talking about it that at this point, we’ve just probably got about 1200 tests and this 150 comes from that number. But we now need to start being ready to test a couple of thousands per day. And secondly, we need to also be able to increase the capability to have what we call drive-by testing and mobile testing capacity as it were.

Let's just wash hands and worry not about this thing.. One way or the other, we all gonna die

He also said 70 percent of us are going to get the virus....😒

So where does the mayor from somewhere get the idea that Cuba does have the vaccine?

Next time listen carefully when they speak in the US so you won't show your gutter journalism.

Everything gets tested on Africans. Why don't they give it to Italy who has 500 deaths per day. Sounds like a science experiment...just saying

Key word is TEST don't be sensational. There is no vaccine at this time.

Who is fooling who here?

The US gave it the go ahead after elonmusk a south african from petori told them about its wonders a while ago

Someone tell that dickhead from Ehurkuleni.
