Oh great idea! Let everyone in SA get infected first! 😡

Why SA deny Dalai Lama visa? A South African court ruled two years ago that officials had “unreasonably delayed” a decision on granting the Dalai Lama a visa in 2011, largely out of fear of angering China, now a major African and South African trading partner and investor.

They eat everything those ppl thats they are sick always

Until more people are infected.

Banje labo swine... mxm

Lmao. Covid 2.0 scams loading

Again... 😭

People are still panicking over Covid Come on

That's the mistake that the Department is doing..

May it not end in tears🙏🙏

Our government is a real joke. China itself barred everyone including RSA citizens when Omicron was discovered without hesitation. Now when for the 2nd time people are dying like flies in China due to Covid, we should NOT worry n NO restrictions

Yeah, because they want us to have a new wave of covid infections.

Sad that our government is more concerned about the Chinese then their own citizens 😪😪. Where is the President, why is he not doing anything? Our economy, our lives, our children are at risk again!! HealthZA PresidencyZA

let me just resign & claim my provident fund money now because i see the repeat of 2020

Useless

We've seen this movie before 😂 😂 😂 unfortunately it ends in tears

Dept of Health: 'Yes. We first need it to be here then we will put in restrictions so that we can get our hands on some new opportunities to loot'.

We live to expect less from an MYANC government. GovernmentZA HealthZA - negligent behavious is the normal of this government.

This is because we are owned by the chinese !!

They want us to be killed?

Are we on repeat mode?🤔🤡🤡🤡

You are behind, in the news! 🤡

HealthZA didn't learn in 2020 when this pandemic destroyed our lives because of their incompetency. Well tough decisions will to be made if we are to survive.
