in Mahikeng in the North West have appealed to the government to deploy health workers at taxi ranks to screen commuters for coronavirus.
They also need protective gear for drivers and sanitisers for passengers and vehicles because they have to practice good hygiene and stick to regulations as stipulated by the government.Nearly two weeks into the national lockdown, challenges persist. Taxi operators in Mahikeng say while they have tried their best not to exceed the 70% limit for the maximum number of passengers allowed on a single trip – they face great health risks – because they have no personal protective gear.
Mahikeng taxi rank committee chairperson Nthutang Kgarane says, “I want health officials to come to the rank and scan people every day and every morning, and give them masks, gloves and sanitisers. I plead with the government to change the time from 5 o’clock to 9 o’clock, to be 6 o’clock until 11 o’clock. From 9 o’clock until 4pm they wait for 6 hours and it means there is no income.”
Some taxi operators say the losses they’ve incurred since the lockdown seem to far outweigh the dangers posed by continuing to work. Taxi operators say they will continue to practice precautionary measures to protect themselves against Coronavirus.

This one is not sick, he is seeking attention. First he went for a test and was found negative, afterwards he insisted for another test which he says came positive, boom he is taking videos and posting on social media, he is admitted to hospital for one day, he is discharged
The ? Is, why the doctor's don't advise him like the other guy that there's no need coz the results will be the same.
