PLEASE don't tell me that the grossly overweight and completely unhealthy person in this picture has nothing to do with this countries health system....

What a joke.

ehlers_anthony Viva ANC excellence... And they want to introduce NHI...? What a joke...

AkanyangM A new permanent structure that can house 1000 beds could could have been built with that R500 million.

What a glorious waste. GautengHealth David_Makhura

Why not use it to cope with other crowded hospitals? Or for TB patients? Maternity and pediatrics? Surely there must be a need for this.

Money well spent 🤣

We don’t have sufficient hospitals!!! ANCParliament GautengANC Lesufi PresidencyZA CyrilRamaphosa HealthZA Do u care about this nation or you only care about what you can benefit the screw the masses?

And that's why we can't have nice things.

ANC no brains

The entire State of Disaster was just a farce! The WHO and the ANC Government should be held accountable!!

Such good planning!🤣

Wasting money is so easy for the govt to do

I thought Makhura was woke and would never be scammed. I have changed my views. I now think he is part of the scammers

As part of preparations for managing covid19 a field hospital was build and it is just temporary structure. The extent of covid19 wasn’t so bad that we required a field hospital. On the flip side what if government didn’t built one and we ended up needing more hospital beds?

Who said cadre deployment was a good idea?

various other field hospitals closed down last 2 years

Not the first or last hospital down the drain.

Dismantle, like they could not use it as an overflow for Kagiso, Randfontein and other West Rand Towns/Townships? What Proof do we have that R499M was spent there? It is another wasteful expenditure, like the Fumagation of Schools. When is Lesufi & Mokgethi gonna be fired?

The ANC prove every second of every single day why they are a crime against humanity!!

CoruscaKhaya But CyrilRamaphosa and joe phaahla at HealthZA still want to amend the national healthcare act in order to vaccinate the shit out of us.

only if we had opposition parties in South Africa

Another commission of inquiry ? Yerr, these people are disgusting mahn

Kikikikiki heeee ramalokot come this side bafo 😂😂😂😂😂😂

BEE tenders has fvcked up everything...

Their P03S

LAWLESSNESS leads to souls BURNING IN HELL VERY SOON FOR ETERNITY, NO BRIBERY AND CORRUPTION THERE🙏🙏🙏

This is what happens when 🤡🤡leaders do not use their own brains and follow the narrative of their western masters. From the beginning the least affected were acting like hospitals would be flooded with patients despite facts not supporting. And still they want to jab everyone

There’s no greater joy than having financial freedom and a life free of debts, that’s why I'm posting comments about Brian_Meadors0 who guided me trading online

What a waste of good money. How many homes could have been built. The ANC will just dust it off and move on to the next looting project
