South Africa is recording a worrying increase in Covid-19 infections, especially in the Western Cape, according to Health Minister Zweli Mkhize.

Nationwide, new cases increased by 9.1% in the past seven days, prompting the health department to urge provinces to “quickly mount a response, including contact tracing and quarantine”, Mkhize said on Wednesday.

The rise in infections in the Western Cape indicates a resurgence and the provincial health department has identified clusters of infections, said Mkhize, who is in quarantine at home after contracting the virus. It would be irresponsible of us to ignore small flames that we see redeveloping in some parts of the country.The biggest cluster was created by a so-called superspreader event that took place at a bar in Cape Town, he said.“It would be irresponsible of us to ignore small flames that we see redeveloping in some parts of the country.”The country moved to lockdown level 1 on October 1, lifting most restrictions imposed during the hard lockdown in March.

So what? Where are the numbers that matter? Deaths? ICU admissions? Infections without bad outcome is a good thing.

I never believe any MYANC minister. We in Cape Town have a highly honourable man as Premier, so we ignore the rest with the contempt they deserve.

Isn't that so-called minister self quarantined

Mkhize concerned by 42% spike in Covid-19 cases in CapeSouth Africa faces a high risk of resurging coronavirus infections that may lead to a review by the council deciding on lockdowns, after new cases rose by 42% in Western Cape province in the last two weeks, Health Minister Zweli Mkhize said. How many patients died in the last 24 - 48 hours? The answer is 0. They are just itching to lock us down again for nothing. This man's is meant to be isolation yet his chopping to the media. Tats you are causing problems for us. Its literally already on its way down again he's lying/manipulating the data. That was because of an outbreak and a increase in testing that is directly proportional to the rise in cases. Average deaths in WC are now 4. eNCA SABCNews News24 stop reporting propaganda
