ZweliMkhize: If the children are positive for #Coronavirus then the other children in the class need to be tested too. #BrandwagPrimary #CoronaVirusUpdate
ZweliMkhize: If you test positive for #Coronavirus there is no cure. You can however treat the symptoms #BrandwagPrimary #CoronavirusUpdates
#ZweliMkhize: There is no need to panic. You need to understand how #Coronavirus works. This virus will affect many people.
#ZweliMkhize: The important thing to note is we can contain and deal with #Coronavirus if society cooperates. There is nothing wrong with performing your religious obligations at home for the safety of yourself and others.
#ZweliMkhize: #COVID19 originated from animals and is now found in human beings. People get the virus by being in close proximity with someone who has #Coronavirus
#ZweliMkhize: 80% of those infected will experience a mild form of the virus. It doesn’t mean if you have #COVID19 you are definitely going to die.
#ZweliMkhize: When you have symptoms , we will test you. If you test positive for #COVID19 you need to stay home and self -quarantine for 14 days.
#ZweliMkhize: If you have children that are negative for #coronavirus and you are positive, you should keep them at home for the 14 days. If the children are positive, we will test the children in the same class as them #COVID19 #BrandwagPrimary
#ZweliMkhize: Do not create a stigma around the #coronavirus or discriminate against those that are positive for #COVID19 Image

Driving to Nongoma now to pay our respects

Eish!

Kubuhlungu!!!

I thought about this day many times and wished it would never come or at least not now!!

Remembering the first day we went as team led by Nxamalala in 1994 as the 3 newly appointed ANC MECs in Kzn
We reached NND around 22:00

Isilo came out of kwaKhangela Palace opened his arms and said “welcome home” and gave loud laugh as we were ushered in

We had dinner at 01:00 and toured all palaces waking up the oNdlunkulu to greet and we left Nongoma 06:30.
As we joined caucus in legislature in Pietermaritzburg at 11:00, we were still in disbelief of the night gone by as we gave the account to our comrades.

KwaZulu-Natal had turned a corner!!

The government’s process of procuring vaccines preceded the discovery of the 501Y.V2 variant and other variants. #VaccineRolloutSA
Before the efficacy results, SA could not delay receipt of the vaccine batches to await the results of the efficacy studies by our scientists, as this would have relegated the country to the back of the line for vaccines due to global shortage of supplies. #VaccineRolloutSA
There are concerns in the public domain about the expiry date of the received AstraZeneca vaccine batches (30th April 2021).#VaccineRolloutSA

We have always said the second wave is going to be coming and the only way we will be protected is by developing herd immunity through vaccination. #VaccineStrategy
The only way of being able to deal with the #COVID19 pandemic is the provision of immunity through vaccination. We have been trying to follow what the best way is to deal with this. #VaccineStrategy
The vaccines will need to be made available quickly so that most of our citizens are
covered by the end of the first year of rollout - this year. #VaccineStrategy

28 469 South Africans are known to have succumbed to COVID-19 this year- amongst those were 436 public health care workers who paid the ultimate price in the frontline. #NYECandleLighting Image
Our health care workers continue to bravely fight this war even though they have been pushed beyond their call of duty. #NYECandleLighting
But we must remember that as the rate of transmission rises so too do the infections amongst health care workers rise. To date, we have recorded a cumulative 43 124 health care workers who became infected with #COVID19. #NYECandleLighting
