North West Provincial Legislature Speaker Susan Dantjie tests negative to COVID-19
The North West Health MEC Madoda Sambatha has welcomed with great relief the news that the Speaker of the North West Provincial Legislature Honourable Susan Dantjie has tested negative to COVID-19.
“We welcome the news of the negative COVID-19 results of the Speaker of the Provincial Legislature. It is important that we do not get more positive cases. We wish the Speaker well and encourage her to continue to protect herself, her colleagues in the Legislature, other members of the executive she interacts with as well as her loved ones by remaining negative”, said MEC Sambatha
The MEC has continued to emphasize the need to implement precautionary measures of preventing further spread of COVID-19 infections.
“While we have been decontaminating health facilities whenever there is a case in such facilities, we have also picked up a concern over household sanitization from some of our community members. In this regard, COVID-19 regulations which were made public at the beginning of the pandemic still apply. It is therefore important that our people regularly clean and disinfect household surfaces like kitchen counter tops, tables, door handles, toilet seats and everywhere in the house where family members frequently converge”, said MEC Sambatha
It is equally important for all citizens to contribute to flattening the curve and stop spreading of the virus by keeping social distancing, wearing masks, ensuring proper hygiene by washing hands with soap and running or sanitizer when in public.
