Health minister Dr Zweli Mkhize has paid tribute to the youth of 1976 who fought against the apartheid system and also urged today’s youth to rise to the occasion and fight against the 'unseen enemy' - Covid-19.

“Today, as a nation, as humanity, we face an unseen enemy — an enemy that knows no race, no religion, no border, no government, no king, no peasant. It only knows human, and how to get from one to the next one.” “Like the youth of 1976, it takes consciousness, discipline, co-operation and courage to turn the tide against this invisible enemy.

While the virus had wreaked havoc in many sectors, posing a threat to the most vulnerable, including women and children, Mkhize said South Africans had a collective responsibility to combat the spread of the disease. “As South Africans, we cannot afford to have excuses. The whole world is going through what we are going through. We are not alone in this fight. Our hard-won freedoms were to afford us the opportunity to be the masters of our own fate.” JUNE 16, 2020.Two people walk past a colourful sign in Rosebank, Johannesburg, as they gesture to the camera.Mkhize was joined by minister of social development Lindiwe Zulu at the launch of the committee.
