Nelson Mandela Bay is the epicentre of the virus in the Eastern Cape with more than 167 cases and six deaths. Statistics released on Wednesday evening indicated that the province had 377 positive cases, seven deaths and 15 recoveries. “Those who have passed on are wrapped in sheets instead of the protective material. There are no protective clothes for workers. Zweli was clear that without the municipality, it would be a mess. He said [what] saved the Bay is a strong municipal direction.”

BREAKING NEWS: SA's Covid-19 cases jump to 3465Health Minister Zweli Mkhize also revealed that the Western Cape had become the second province to have more than 1000 confirmed cases of the Covid-19.
