She is useless

It's always the excuse

This MEC is a heartless liar! She must be fired!

Siess!!!

Go to Helen Joseph casualty at night..disgusting...

Life Esidimeni was not that bad?

Good for nothing!!!

At least she is focused on looking fabulous. If the same effort was put into her role as health MEC, knowing how bad the situation was at the beginning of her tenure - she'd know to shut up and address such glaringly obvious disasters in her portfolio instead of making excuses.

This video is pretty much what the conditions are like in state hospitals. Patients are treated like dogs by doctors, nurses and administrators and security goons. I dread to think what happened to patients during covid.

Wapenga wena straight... Out of context se voet maan

This could also be taken out of context then I guess....😒😒😒🙄🙄🙄

Useless people running hospital 😢😢

So put it into a context madam not unless if it is not your hospital.

Bullshit. This is normal for all Gauteng Hospitals. All the time.

Learned a new word but no idea what it means.

I'm sure the patients can provide some context. Now if some journalists would be willing to interview those lying on the floor.

Black excellence

And South Africans will continue supporting such by voting these thugs back. I don't which party could do better, but it is the definition of STUPIDITY to keep doing the same thing (voting for them) and expecting different results!!! Sies the ANC is disgusting

Why not reopen the Kempton Park Hospital (as suggested by the DA)?

🪬 how do you take that out of context

The same way that skinny jeans were a typo.

Any hospital should not look like that, do we agree MEC? If so, there exist facilities that Gauteng closed down, why can’t they be opened? The least that you can do was to transfer when that hospital is overloaded on temporary basis?

Awum'bheke nge make-up!!!

Explain Ma’am?

Is there context to people on the floor?

By just looking at her you can tell she is not capable of leadership.

You know what’s not “out of context”, NkomoNomantu? That TembisaHospital video, and the ratio in this thread.

Sure.

Hai, angivumi. If it's full people must be take to a dirty place,

Lesufi your MEC cannot be allowed to get away with this response.

So the video lies?

They should pass a law where all politicians and government employee’s are only allowed to go to state medical facilities. I bet it would look different then. Probably better than private sector.

Evidently this politician and her communications staff do not understand public health in crisis - immediate, emerging or sustained.

💩man.... how thick do they think we are? ÷=%£^%£÷%^^

How can what we see, be taken out of context?

Mampara of the week nominee!

Uyabheda wena MEC. Panyaza please fire your useless RET friend and charge her for insult.

Anc to arrogant to accept liability

These guys fails dismally to do their job and always hide behind 'taken out of context'. This is pure BS, how can a helpless patient who is unattended be out of context.

Crooks everywhere

Which part

Out of context? Does this female think we're blind AND stupid Gaan kak in die mielies!!

Why is everyone complaining. You elected these people. And you will still vote for them. As selective memory will just forget this.

Disgusting!

So, what's the context then?

Ask her what medical aid she has. Gems ? Why ? Why does she not break her medical aid card and use the public service. Does she not have faith in her own self ?

I know. It was just a horror movie set right.

Let's mostly blame it on whoever gave them power to govern.

Ooohhhh

Out of context? My ass!!! Overflow or not, this is disgusting!!!! Surely an overflow, even temporary, can be clean and organised? Or is that expecting too much? Is this what we can expect with the new NHI? No person should be treated like that. Sies!!!

She misses the point. This must never happen for one minute in any hospital ever. If it does then the MEC should be fired on the spit. Is that in context?

The disrespect that the ruling party has on us

What part of the looting and stealing was taken out of context. Face up to your poor management of this hospital

Wtf is she smoking? I need some! Please explain how a video was taken out of context? The hypocritical oath means nothing all to these people! The ill deserve to be treated with dignity and respect!

Out of context, how? A disgusting hospital is a disgusting hospital.

Pretty sure she would be going to a life healthcare facility and not Tembisa hospital.

Which part exactly? I’ll wait.

Out of context?

Utterly ridiculous what people are subjected to and the excuses that follow

Tembisa Hosp is one the reasons Babita Deokaran is dead. Catch a wake Miss. Or quit your job now. We got no time and energy for excuses anymore. Step up, or step down.

The context is lack of resources. How did we get here?

Cover ups, cover ups , cover ups.. hey wena F_k1n.. & the looting of state coffers continues- the tax payer will continue suffering

What do you have to hide, this is the the treatment patients receive at government hospitals.

Only thing out of is their connection to reality

Ask the MEC if they will go to thembisa hospital for treatment public servants should be mandated to go to public hospitals for their medical care

I live 2 streets away from Tembisa hospital,both my grandparents go there for BP treatment every month and I have to take them cause they are old.The video is the truth. Everyday all day it’s like that.

The camera never lies You leaders don't care for nobody except the Louis Vitoun bags and shoes because you ca afford them at the back of the patiant sleeping on the ground.

More sham cover up reporting

Fokof. Lieg bek 🖕🏻

Nothing taken out of context-content talks for itself

It's the respect a black government has for black people. Nothing but pure love.

Our_DA Multiparty can't you ask the courts to sack the management (MEC) and let a Multiparty take temporarily control over the day to day management of the hospital?

The video was actually within context....the GP Health MEC confirmed the deplorable sight on arrival. It was not fake news. What is 'out of context' is her excuse and justification.

That’s what NHS will deliver … to all hospitals… if we lucky.. then we will blame blame blame .. while ministers get medical treatment overseas … just like Zims

Medusa says what?

Just saving your job ... Unfortunately the same calls for De Ruyter don't work here

Out of context 🤣🤣🤣 😞

Masimba mani nje lawo, doti muni nhe lowo. MEC should be fired with immediate effect such an incompetent fool 🤞😭😩

Typical of an MYANC cadre. Always ready with an ''explanation'' - tsek MEC. You people are a disgrace to this country.

🙃

No context needed. Its disgusting 😡

Ya that's your ANC leaders mos🤗

How, does the MEC also lay on the floor when she visits a health facility?

The context was there were patients on the floor! End of!!

What a load of s..te !

To make it easier for you, find below some Optometrists in your area! Something must be wrong with your eyesight!! Hope you come right and good luck!!

Yea, sick people on the floor, no stuff and rubbish all over the ward is taking it out of context.

MEC,the GP's public health facilities are a mess. What are you trying to defend?

I feel so sorry for all the poor and destitute persons in this country that cannot afford their own medical and have to deal with this crap... sorry. ANC you are a shameful bunch!!!

Rubbish. You have people laying in a filthy hospital. I'm sure you wouldn't even let your dog lay there.

Come on…

Babita died for this shit?

So this so-called Gauteng Health MEC thinks it's ok to have patients, who by the way are people. Yes that's right P E.O.P.L.E!! Laying on the floor half naked, dustbins laying toppled over, no clean linen, and obviously no food too!!!! Come on get a grip!!!

SA is really a movie. How do you take a video out of context? Perhaps I need to go change my 👓 by the optometrist. How does a black leader allow such conditions for black people? Black on black hate is real& the politicians are at the forfront.

It's So Disgusting To Watch That Video

Sick people on the floor is supposed to be out of context 🙄

Bullshit.

Please ask the MEC to describe a possible context to better understand the video. Shame on you MEC

Of course

Sounds like a cheating husband when you catch him on video kissing another woman - 'Are you gonna believe me or your eyes'.

The problem is those in leadership positions over politicise everything, the care fkall about the citizens of this country, they only worry and care for themselves

Yeah right

As expected the MEC will never take responsibility nor accountability, what a insult to leadership.

Copy and paste reply..

This one with make up thinks we don’t know tembisa. That hospital is a graveyard

Same with the Levi’s jeans tender! Out of context?

My eyes don't see incorrectly. There is absolutely no excuse Tembisa Hospital can give for those conditions. Cleanliness above all is lacking. Patients on the floor equals depravity.

What a joke......

Oh please 'out of context' what nonsense of an excuse!!! Babita Deokaran was brutally murdered because she exposed this hospital for what it is!!! You should be ashamed of yourselves!!!

Big English, no plan to solve the problem

Keep covering up for your blatant failures. It’s clear as daylight why that hospital is collapsing, it’s financing politicians lifestyles. MYANC gives zero f**ks!! I’m sure they are doing the same at ALL the hospitals 😔

I despise these ANC appointed scumbags with every fibre of my being.

Accountability is foreign in this people's vocab.

I think the Mec must go for a check up at the hospital,how can she defend shit like this

Yeah.....almost like the R1bn corruption that took place at the same hospital.....for 'CONTEXT'

The usual excuse….
