The spread of Coronavirus is starting to cause panic among people in the country. This after the minister of health Dr Zweli Mkhize confirmed that the confirmed cases of Covid-19 has risen up to seven in the country. 

With the number of Covid-19 going up, the National Education, Health and Allied Workers’ Union (Nehawu) is calling on Mkhize to provide its members in the healthcare sector with the necessary training to deal with the virus. 

Nehawu also wants the minister to provide healthcare workers with protective clothing and training in dealing with confirmed Covid-19 cases.

Speaking on POWER Drive, Nehawu National Spokesperson Khaya Xaba says some of its members don’t have the necessary skills on how to deal virus.
