60 new deaths and 2 642 new infections brings SA's Covid-19 cases to 43 434

The number of confirmed Covid-19 cases in South Africa rose by 2 642 to 43 434 in the past 24 hours, Health Minister Zweli Mkhize said on Friday. The country has also recorded 60 more deaths related to the coronavirus.

On a visit to the Western Cape on Friday, President Cyril Ramaphosa urged provincial authorities to recruit more staff, allocate more beds and tighten its hot-spot strategy, which has already shown success in the rural district of Witzenberg. "It is better to over provide than under provide. I would like to see a margin above what you are providing for. KwaZulu-Natal had also underprovided the beds available and we said they should provide more beds and they are doing that.

We must go on. Most will live a few will die. Mask up, keep your distance.

Very soon it will be 100 death daily

Here is a thought President. Give us an average death per month for the last 3 years and then highlight where the virus increase is. The public is smart enough to see if the virus contributes to additional deaths. I am sure your cabinet suggested this?

Most of those were tested weeks ago as we know all abt backlogs
