The Free State Emergency Medical Services say they are combat-ready to respond to calls this festive season. SABCNews

Apart from the high number of road crashes this time of year, the fourth wave of COVID-19 infections is adding to their workload.“At this time of the year. I would not say it’s a challenge per se. Why I’m saying this, most of the patients don’t want to be admitted. Especially during the festive season, they want to be with their families. So, I would say most of the calls that we are receiving would be trauma cases, by trauma cases I mean accidents, stab wounds and the like.

“Most of the time you would find that our people are under the influence of alcohol and we get a lot of accidents, and they fight and it’s our biggest challenge,” says Mokhele.
