In the video below, President Cyril Ramaphosa announces that the 21-day lockdown will be extended by a further two weeks:
South Africa has shown flattening of the rate of infections since the imposition of the lockdown and Mkhize says the country could follow the trend of some Asian nations that have been able to bring the spread of COVID-19 under control. But Mkhize says it is up to every South African to join the fight against COVID-19. He says it is essential that South Africans obey the lockdown regulations, maintain good hygiene and maintain social distancing as much as possible.Mkhize says there are a number of private hospitals they are currently monitoring in KwaZulu-Natal. KZN has the highest number of deaths in the province with 12 fatalities recorded.Mkhize was briefed the media in Pietermaritzburg.
“There have been concerns about a number of hospitals last week. I had written a letter to the MEC to actually send a team to look at a private hospital in Ladysmith which was done this week. We had to raise the issue of. The main concern in that area has been the numbers of deaths in that hospital, but I’ve also had other concerns where I asked ‘they must go and monitor’. And that is like private hospitals; one Hibiscus Hospital; the other one is in Parklands; the other one is Shifa Hospital.
As a foreigner i dont have access to all these government initiatives ,my plea is that the government should allow us to go back to Zim
Those are good news in deed we are in prayer, keep up the good spirit
Let's just cooperate as south Africans, this will end n stop avoiding President's voices
Great news!
