CyrilRamaphosa Mr President please order closing down of that hospital, quarantine all nurses and their families, fumigate shopping centres near whereever each of them stays.This is SERIOUS. We dont want another Italy situation here. DrZweliMkhize

Close the hospital down. I heard the CEO saying that some parts are still open. 🙆🙆

That CEO interview with Thembekile left me with wondering...

All of those who visited , working in that facilities must be tested .......for the sake of lives

Hope they are looking at their IPC. It clearly needs a major incident rv. This is the time for quality leaders. No fluffy ness. Strict protocols and adherence. Rapid planning and communication. This pandemic has highlighted for me how unable some ppl are to respond real-time.

🤣🤣🤣

As we all should be. 60 infected staff members and hundreds of track, trace and test exercises. The spread from this alone...

We trust God in everything that is happening in our country no matter how hard it is we will conquere this virus because mkhulu ongakithi kunalona osezweni
