Health Minister Dr. Joe Phaahla has tested positive for COVID-19 and has decided to self-isolate.

National Health Department spokesperson Foster Mohale says Phaahla took the test earlier on Tuesday after experiencing mild coronavirus symptoms and has subsequently decided to self-isolate.

Mohale says the minister will continue his official duties from home for the next seven days. This is a reminder that the pandemic still remains amongst us and infectious, hence the department continues to report COVID-19 positive cases and death. Phaahla received two doses of the Johnson&Johnson COVID-19 vaccine which he believes has boosted his immunity against the severity of the virus.

The Department of Health would like to remind the public that lifting COVID-19 restrictions does not mean the pandemic is over, hence vaccination services remain accessible at all times at selected vaccination sites.

Only now? Dr. Paahla so behind, no longer fashionable and newsworthy to test positive and isolate. Back then we attained celebrity status just for being in isolation. Aaaah, not anymore.

Wishing you a speady recovery DR...

Lier. The weather is changing, getting dryer causing the body adjustments and defences ready. The sore throats cause no so serious coughs and sneezes. It's natural, treat the symptoms the same natural way your Mama would treat your flu, influenza and colds, ie: chew Raw onion

I was scammed through Bitcoin couple of months ago, I started hating Bitcoin until I was introduced to Mike_Rosehart , and I gave Bitcoin trading another try, I successfully withdrew R240,000 after two weeks of trading, am so grateful Mike_Rosehart thank you.
