Now you see the need of the army to use force?

MbuyiseniNdlozi Just because a case is confirmed in Alex everyone is saying its over? you’d swear its animals who live in Alex.

I start to think twice about Coronavirus being men made disease those people were saying yesterday that 'we are fine in Alexandra we don't have Coronavirus here' and today it confirm that there's Coronavirus ni alexandra 🤔 Who is trying to kill the poor people?

thutozadc1 Batfu abalaleli, the president must remove soldiers and SAPS from society. We can put their lives in danger for people who don't listen.

MbuyiseniNdlozi Alex is already over populated this is bad for us, can we stay inside those 1 rooms ke people of Alexandra 🙏🏽

MbuyiseniNdlozi Patiently waiting for DrZweliMkhize media release 😷

MbuyiseniNdlozi Okay and Sandton?

Media is investing so much energy in making this virus about colour. They wanna make it a 'black thing' by all means.

MbuyiseniNdlozi One hopes this self quarantine will cease as of now. Use TheRanch in Limpopo

MbuyiseniNdlozi Jonnaaaaa jonnàaaaa e fihlile moo aaaaaa aaaaaa hohobe straight 🙆‍♀️🙆‍♀️🙆‍♀️🙆‍♀️🙆‍♀️🙆‍♀️

FrancisSheeran1 Brace Yourself Here Comes Shit 😷

Oh gosh no, why is this a headline? This is sensationalism, why should we care about Alexandra?

Ah we r All infected!

thulidlamini47 Let's brace ourselves!!!

It's not one case, when EMS arrived there for a lady who tested positive, she was not there with the kids, then the boyfriend was tested positive and taken away,, The lady hasn't found yet

NOW, SHIT HAS HIT THE FAN, FOR REAL!😲

I would think twice before I believe anything Como g from

Stjwetla isn't in Alex wena mhlathi, its in Malboro.

They are black, they don't believe in covid19, they blame gouvernrment to protect them by lock down, they are all out as if it apartheid they are fighting against it, guys let accept the time had changed, we are fighting different wars now, before it was for white now if from

Its Bad, LORD Will Make A Way

I find this hard to believe😏

🙄

Nkanyiso_ngqulu Good headline is breaking news: Sandton white richest people went to EUROPE to fetch corona Virus for poor black people in the skwatta kamp in the township of Alexander.

😳😳

LucasMothibedi Yoh it's over, lesssgooo

It can take only one Uber driver from Township to spread it to family then it's on, or simply a helper from Suburb, or a bank staff from Township, Townships are not islands

How does one self-isolate in a one-room shack with several family members 🤔

No COVID-19 test centers in many crowd areas the government has created a deathtrap

Namanga🙄

Kwanuka umswane ke ngoku...

Still believe that mandatory quarantine is the only solution so far, people lack self discipline to can self isolate and quarantine

South African townships are very complex in that there are many differentiated from their economic classes also. How can the virus that has hit the rich first in the white community overlook all other classes and head straight to Khayelitsha and Alex. Least we want to confirm.

Okay
