How Covid19 Kills Innocent People Who DON’T Have Covid19! Kidney Patient Neglected & Left to Die in Tshepong State Hospital!

Posted on by Leave a comment

Collateral Damage: Did Covid restrictions let a man literally starve to a lonely death, in yet another horror story from a state hospital, preventing his family from noticing and helping him? Allowed to die from hunger and dehydration in Tshepong hospital in Klerksdorp? By now everyone should be aware of what death traps SA state hospitals have become, as 58 year old Andre Smit’s family found out when Andre died in hospital on 17 February 2021, after the hospital inexplicably refused him kidney dialysis treatment. Due to Covid the family were barred from helping him themselves and they are convinced he developed kidney failure because of dehydration, from neglect, hunger and thirst in the Tshepong hospital.

The facts in the matter supports their claim as Andre was unable to fend for himself during the entire time, because he suffered from dementia. He was initially taken up in the Tshepong hospital in Klerksdorp on 4 February after he had suffe

#COVIDMANIA, a Politicized Flu, Weaponized by Greedy Powermongers into a Great Reset Which Will Kill More Than Covid19 Itself!

Posted on by Leave a comment

NUMBERS DON’T LIE: Despite all the hype and Covid-19 mania peddled by mainstream media and money grabbing politicians, far more people will and are still dying from alcohol and tobacco use, HIV/AIDS, Cancer, Tuberculosis, Malaria, etc. Shockingly, figures have revealed that lockdown will indeed take more lives than it saves! Truth is the ANC and other globalist liberal governments see Covid-19 as an opportunity not only to line their pockets, but also to hammer through ideological political social engineering projects in the so called Great Reset. For all their claims about saving lives, that really is the last thing on their minds, Socialism is…

A health time bomb is ticking in South Africa, medical experts have told Rapport newspaper, claiming that a “catastrophic” decline in the diagnosis and treatment of killer diseases like tuberculosis (TB), cancer and HIV/Aids as a result of the lockdown, and the Covid-1

Despite 3 Months Warning & Emergency Powers Plus Billions at its Disposal, ANC Already Totally Failing Fight Against CCP-Virus! 12 Day Delay in ANC Government Covid19 Tests!

Posted on by Leave a comment

The much vaunted ANC government Covid-19 testing capacity has crashed, as an enormous backlog in CCP-virus tests has developed at the National Health Laboratory Service (NHLS), resulting in a waiting period of between 10-12 days for a test to be concluded, which makes testing pointless, as the genetic material of the virus breaks down after 72 hours! In contrast, private laboratories, which do just over half the CCP-virus tests in the country, just take a day to complete such a test.

The long waiting period from the National Labs is wreaking havoc and threatens to totally derail the fight against the CCP-virus pandemic and render the massive sacrifices South Africans were forced to make, during the drawn out and over regulated lockdown, worthless, driving many people into bankruptcy and hunger unnecessarily. According to the Rapport newspaper a nursing expert says that if a patient in a hospital can’t be tested speedily, the patient has to be treated as

Junk Status looms – Implementation of NHI will have disastrous consequences for SA economy

Posted on by Leave a comment

AfriForum today sent a letter to President Cyril Ramaphosa, Finance Minister Tito Mboweni and Minister of Health Zweli Mkhize warning the civil rights organization that the implementation of national health insurance (NHI) could eventually lead to the downgrading of the country’s credit rating to junk status .

This comes after the credit rating agency Moody’s recently downgraded South Africa’s credit rating from a stable to a negative outlook. The reason for this downgrade according to Mood is the bleak growth prospects and growing public debt. In its letter, AfriForum argues that unaffordable, ideological policies such as the NHI will lead to South Africa being downgraded to junk status, as the country simply cannot fund it.

“To continue with the implementation of the NHI will not only be disastrous for the South African economy; it will also inflate government debt to levels that will make it impossible to escape the downgrade to

God Help us! No health care facility in Gauteng controlled by ANC regime could pass safety audit – Now the very same regime wants to enforce a National Health Insurance Plan across SA

Posted on by Leave a comment

No healthcare facility in Gauteng was able to successfully pass a safety audit that complies with the Occupational Safety Act of SA (OHSA),according to a statement issued by DA Health spokesman Jack Bloom on Thursday. This means that all hospitals and clinics in Gauteng pose a safety risk to staff and patients.

It ranges from overcrowding to emergency departments, leaky roofs, non-functional air conditioning and non-standard kitchens.

This highlights how unprepared the state is for the planned National Health Insurance to be introduced.

Informed sources believe it is better not to go to the hospitals, as the risk of just being further affected or even die, has become too great.

“This information about the shock state of healthcare facilities is revealed by Gauteng Health MEC Bandile Masuku in a written response to questions in the Gauteng Legislature,” Bloom said.

The following facilities performed the worst:

No high-care unit at Pelonomi Hospital is operational – patients suffer – poor condition of state hospital indication that the planned Health Insurance will be just another failed ANC project

Posted on by Leave a comment

The FF Plus demands that the Free State Department of Health urgently intervene and ensure that all high-care units in the Pelonomi Hospital in Bloemfontein are restored to an operational condition.

Currently, there is not one operating high-care unit in this hospital.

At a recent Health Portfolio Committee meeting in the Free State Legislature, the head of the Free State Department of Health, Dr. David Motau, reveals that only the high-care unit on the third floor of Pelonomi Hospital is operational.

However, the FF Plus has determined that this unit is used as an ordinary hospital ward.

The FF Plus has addressed a written question to the Free State MEC of Health, Montseng Tsiu.

The party condemns the poor quality of healthcare to patients who cannot afford private healthcare.

The dire state of state hospitals, such as Pelonomi, is another indication that the planned National Health Insurance will be just another failed ANC

Registered illegal aliens from other countries will have access to all medical services under the NHI, which will be financed by South Africa’s hard-working taxpayers

Posted on by Leave a comment

The government’s plan to steamroller the National Health Insurance (NHI) through Parliament and to have it promulgated as legislation will cost South Africa dearly.

Last month, the FF Plus warned in Parliament that adopting the NHI as legislation and enforcing it will cause experienced medical professionals to leave the country.

The Minister of Health, Dr Zweli Mkhize, is being obstinate in his attempts to get this law on paper so that it can be implemented, however, he is still unable to provide clarity regarding how the NHI will be financed and what the role of medical aid funds will be under the NHI.

Everything seems to indicate that the government is aiming to get rid of medical aid funds with the NHI and that will surely deliver another significant blow to South Africa’s already struggling economy.

South Africa’s taxpayers will become overburdened with the NHI and will not be able to afford paying the compulsory con

Motsoaledi: We can’t wait to improve healthcare before implementing NHI

Posted on by Leave a comment

Government does not believe it can wait until the healthcare system is improved before implementing national health insurance, Health Minister Aaron Motsoaledi has said.

The minister was speaking at a briefing at Tuynhuys, Parliament, where the report of the outcomes of the presidential health summit, held late last year, was released.

During his address on Tuesday, Motsoaledi said government would be taking significant steps towards implementing universal healthcare.

Last week, president Cyril Ramaphosa said that the National Health Insurance Bill would be tabled before Parliament this year.

NHI will ensure that South Africans can receive free health services at the point of care at both public and private quality-accredited healthcare service providers, Motsoaledi said.

NHI is a proposed state-run health financing system that aims to pool funds to provide access to quality health services for all South Africans regardless of thei

National Health Insurance legislation will hit private hospital sector’s future investment and capital expenditure, NHI laws threaten 132,000 jobs

Posted on by Leave a comment

National Health Insurance (NHI), which the government is pushing as the solution to SA’s health crisis, could lead to the loss of up to 132,000 jobs, according to the country’s private hospital groups.

NHI, spearheaded by health minister Aaron Motsoaledi, is the government’s policy for introducing universal health coverage and aims to ensure everyone has access to healthcare that is free at the point of service.

The Hospital Association of SA (Hasa), which represents the private hospital sector, was among the industry groups that presented their views on the risks to the economy at last week’s Business Unity SA (Busa) meeting.

The gathering brought together business and government leaders, who have been trying to forge a closer relationship under the auspices of the Public Private Growth Initiative spearheaded by former politician Roelf Meyer and Toyota Europe and Africa CEO Johan van Zyl.

Hasa commissioned economics consultancy E
