The City of Mangaung in the Free State has seen a sharp increase in the number of Covid-19 cases in the past week.Officials in the Bloemfontein-based Mangaung municipality are worried because of a sharp increase in Covid-19 cases in the past week.
“Social gatherings and parties over weekends have increased, with patrons ignoring health measures which can save lives. Scientists in the country have warned that the risk of a second wave still exists and is high, and this is evident in our city,” said municipal spokesperson,He said the city recorded 343 new cases on October 10, compared to the 1,575 cases nationally — meaning that Mangaung accounted for 20% of the cases on the day.
“Fellow South Africans, when we emphasise that the risk of a resurgence remains high, we do not do so to instil fear in you. As government, we have a responsibility to alert you when we see concerning trends. It would be irresponsible of us to ignore ‘small flames’ that we see redeveloping in some parts of the country,” said Mkhize.
