Tests after death confirm ailing man in Limpopo had Covid-19

“Unfortunately he has demised and was diagnosed through post-mortem results,” the department said in a statement on Sunday.

“The deceased is a 55-year-old male who worked in Cape Town as both a freelancer in the film industry and a traditional healer,” the department said. “The family took him to one of the private practitioners in the area where he was declared dead on arrival after spending less than 30 minutes in the practice.”The health department said it was taking swabs and checking every “suspicious” fatality.Tracer teams were dispatched to locate all of his contacts for testing.

Let God give the family strength 🙏🙏🙏

Thato_TT_ .... 🤷🏾‍♂️

They must test the whole familu here and everyone who went to his funeral

The ignorance is so painful though, so someone is sick with probably Covid symptoms, they leave hospitals in WC & drive him all the way to Limpopo for a traditional healer? That son must also be charged.

How did he managed to reach Limpopo during the lockdown?
