The discussions, attended by Cuban chief of the Medical Brigade in South Africa Dr Reynaldo Denis de Armas, looked at exchanges between the two countries and how Cuba could assist in the fight against the coronavirus. A large number of Cuban doctors were recently dispatched to Italy, which has been ravaged by Covid-19, and more have been sent to other countries. More than 700 South African medical students trained under the Nelson Mandela-Fidel Castro Cooperative Program initiated by the two leaders several years ago are expected to graduate soon.
But we are not overwhelmed mos?
Safa Jereva, siright, sebeyilaphile Bona emazweni abo?🙆🏻♀️🙆🏻♀️😱
Wow that is amazing!! We are going to need all the help we can get in the coming weeks!
SamSefako We are managing they must stop for now
FhumuTshisevhe Jehova be our leader now we literally need our creator not the leaders of this world.If they can allow this indeed they can't be trusted to lead us moes
They'll be wasting their time, SA is not fully on lockdown.
ndux_m 😷😭😭😭sizobulawa
Yippeeee💃💃💃💃
Why though. Let them go to Zimbabwe
Azola_AfroWoman That's great. How does Cuba have enough doctors to send to so many countries?
We could of course take this opportunity to, you know, not be bigoted and narrow-minded and instead be thankful to medical professionals for taking the risk of helping us.
But Africa has the lowest death rates. Why don't they go to other countries suffering of that virus they caused? We will be just fine
On the 1st rerpot of Coronavirus in SA China offered itself to come and help but was ignored, why now?
We are fucked!!
Cubans yes but not China
Cuba because their healthcare experience is brilliant & one of the best in the world China because they have experience dealing with covid 19 Can we be greatful we are getting aid ?
No thanks
Stay away from us please
But we are still managing with our very own doctors. They will make things worse
DiePrasidentin This is the cargo Mzwandile Masina was talking about,so do we really have to chastise him now?
Why can't they go to America where there is real infection
Say no to chinese doctors yes tp cuba
ndux_m Chinese doctors? What The Fuck?
No we are currently managing well in SA, they can go USA
RealNiggarShit How do we trust them after they send the infected testing kid to UK?
Tsek!!!!!!!
Cubans yes Chinese f**k
Lol what is wrong with people. Trust me we need them. Conspiracy theories aside.
They have started exporting doctors..soon the whole world will be depending on china
This is welcomed.But can these doctors get tested first.and what the hell is wrong with western cape refusing this help, they’d accept help from a European country even though EU is failing miserably on COVID,carrying over 300 000 of world’s million cases & 20000 of 50000 dead
Oh fuck , god help us
Hebanna!!
The replies here made me lose my last braincell. How is everyone so stupid and racist, wow this virus is gonna make us all vrek.
Thabiso_Dlamini Hebanna! Europe and The U.S need extensive help nje
I'm afraid because they fail to deal with it in China
They must go to 🇺🇸
ndux_m Why not to the US
Chinese🙄
Awu safa saphela madoda sibhekile
Not much said about the Chinese in this article? Deets please?
I don't mind Cubans Doctors but Chinese can go to Italy they are needed the most
They must go help others, we still good
Italy?
How about they start in Italy?
ndux_m 🤔🤔
There is honestly something we are not being told, it seems like the whole world knows it, but we're in the dark
Looks like the lockdown might not need to be extended Cuban doctors!!!!! R coming
To increase number of infection😏
And take your people back when you done
can they go to Italy first, when it gets bad we got them on speed dail.
Reading the comments... You guys are against EVERYTHING yerrr
Cuban Doctors? Ok Chinese doctors? Idk
South Africans lets stand up against this mass murder our government is trying to bring in our country... If i get sick i dont want to be treated by a white, Indiana, Chinese or any other race doctor unless its a Black Doctor. We are surviving HIV /AIDS they wanna bring more...
AfricanMarvin They coming here ,Flying here ,Flying with the corona here ,bringing it here ,When we under 1500 only , But they can come they own South Africa and Cyril Hasn’t paid his Loans
They Bloody Better!!
We welcome them. SouthAfrica can use all the help it gets. The Chinese managed the virus most effectively in the world. If the US and Europe followed China's approach they would have saved tens of thousands of lives so far and not infected Africa.
TheThin41314045 No Chinese please No....we don’t want Covid-19 pro Max ...no no no
They must not come here. Did we say we want Chinese doctors?
Nama China🙉🙉🙉🙉
Ayi sobabiza when we need them.right now other countries need them more.sigrand for now.
Chinese doctors. Nkosi sikelel'iafrika
They are now politicizing the fight against the virus. Maybe it's a good thing
Voetsek
Joo meaning we are not coping though the deaths stand at 5? A ke tshepe China waitsi..
Chinese doctors reshwele
The language barrier is gonna be a biggest hurdle for us. Is the situation out of control or the Government bidding something?
Nkanyiso_ngqulu Why?
The very thought of the GovernmentZA bring in a country who caused the virus, persecuted their doctor for identifying & warning of the deadly novel virus, caused the heroic doctor's death, concealed the deadly virus until very late & still concealing the true facts,that China?
Chinese doctors must treat only those at China malls
To increase number of infections? Let them go to Egypt first. It has high infection rate.
Mass impotation of corry's 🙊🙊🙊🙊
Don't think that is a good idea at all - dont trust them 🙈😵
hope they are coming to train our south African doctors and nurses
Chinese doctors? Yooooo ohk
