Rising Covid-19 infections in the province have resulted in an increase in hospital admissions, but experts believe the peak of third wave should not be as bad as the previous two waves.

Rising Covid-19 infections in the province have resulted in an increase in hospital admissions, but experts believe the peak of third wave should not be as bad as the previous two wavesThe rate of hospital admissions as a result of the increase in Covid-19 cases was a cause for concern, Gauteng premier David Makhura said on Friday.

He added that Gauteng now accounted for at least half of daily cases reported nationally‚ and had reached a daily rate of infection of 3‚000. “We are solidly in a third resurgence. This is the fifth week of sustained growth in the number of cases. In the past two days‚ we have had about 3‚000 cases a day‚ which is already quite a big number‚” Mellado said.

Malotana said in the first and second waves of Covid-19 infections‚ public health hospitals never surpassed 3‚000 admissions. “There is a continuous increase in bed capacity. We are advised by public health experts that given that there is a process of acquired community immunity and vaccination rollout‚ the peak of the third wave should not be as bad as the first and second wave‚” Malotana said.
