John Steenhuisen is perhaps one of the ANC’s biggest detractors. A firebrand in Parliament and an outspoken favourite in the DA, he’s no stranger to giving Mzansi’s ruling party the business. However, during a Cape Town press conference on Thursday, there was no wordplay – nor were there any trademark barbs. Indeed, the cigar handed..

The South African government and other leftists parties have been clearly opposed by America’s president Donald Trump’s announcement that he asked his foreign minister to investigate land expropriation without compensation and farm murders in South Africa. The ANC government’s foreign minister immediately announced that South Africa could resolve its own issues through mutual dialogue. Journalist..

Swak higiëne by Thelle Mogoerane-streekhospitaal veroorsak dat babas sterf ná ’n uitbreking van ’n weerstandige Klebsiella-bakterie
Posted on Leave a comment
Twee pasgebore babas is dood ná ’n uitbreking van ’n weerstandige Klebsiella-bakterie in die Thelle Mogoerane-streekhospitaal in Vosloorus aan die Oos-Rand.
Klebsiella-longontsteking is in die hospitaal se neonatale-eenheid geïdentifiseer.
Lesemang Matuka, woordvoerder van die Gautengse departement van gesondheid, sê sewe gevalle van Klebsiella-longontsteking is in Julie geïdentifiseer “en het ongelukkig tot die sterfte van twee babas gelei”.
Monsters is geneem en is na die laboratorium gestuur om die bron van die siekte vas te stel.
Die hospitaal het sedertien maatreëls getref om infeksievoorkoming en -beheer te versterk en die eenheid noukeurig te monitor.
“Die departement beplan om ’n provinsiale taakspan te saam te stel wat deur ’n neonatoloog gelei word om deurlopend te kyk na die maatreëls om moontlike toekomstige infeksies in al ons geriewe te voorkom,” het prof. Mkhululi Lukhele, departementshoof, wat Woensdagoggend die hosp

Hospitaal in De Aar word leeg gesteel en gevandaliseer terwyl die departement van gesondheid skynbaar niks daaraan doen nie
Posted on Leave a comment
Die ou Karoo Sentraal-hospitaal in De Aar in die Noord-Kaap word glo al maande lank bedags en snags “leeggesteel” en gevandaliseer terwyl die departement van gesondheid skynbaar niks daaraan doen nie.
Die waskamer se toerusting is gesteel of gevandaliseer, sê inwoners.
Só sê Martin Barnard wat in Visserstraat naby die hospitaal woon.
Dié hospitaal het in onbruik geraak sedert die nuwe De Aar-hospitaal ’n paar jaar gelede oopgemaak is.
Die skade moet al derduisende rande beloop, en dit word net nie gestuit nie, sê Barnard.
“Ek is geskok. Ons inwoners voel nou self bedreig. In die afgelope m

ANC regime’s proposed land allocation without compensation could cause Land Bank to lose R41 billion
Posted on Leave a comment
Land expropriation without compensation could set off a domino effect of defaults that would make it liable to repay its funder R41 billion, the Land Bank said on Monday – “which we would not be able to settle”. If done well, land reform could benefit South Africa and the bank, its chairperson Arthur Moloto said..

‘The EFF is in charge – the ANC follows us’: Malema has Ramaphosa ‘where he wants him’
Posted on Leave a comment
Julius Malema, the enfant terrible of South African politics, feels he’s got President Cyril Ramaphosa just where he wants him. Since his expulsion from the ruling African National Congress five years ago, Malema, 37, and the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) have targeted setting the national agenda before next year’s elections. The party has been key..

Nearly 2 million will lose private healthcare if tax reform happens
Posted on Leave a comment
The government’s plan to ditch medical aid tax credits will have a disastrous effect on already cash-strapped South Africans and force nearly 2 million people onto the over-stretched state health system.
If the tax credit is removed, 22% of medical aid users will not be able to afford cover, Stellenbosch economics consultancy Econex warned in a report published on Friday – 1.9 million of the 8 million medical aid members, including children, will have to drop out of the private healthcare system.
In a national health insurance policy document released in July, Health Minister Aaron Motsoaledi said he wanted to remove the tax credit to users, which amounts to R20-billion a year.
Medical aid schemes’ members get a tax reduction of R3,636 a year – or R303 a month. Motsoaledi said then that “the tax credit … we believe, is unfair”.
Economist Paula Armstrong, author of the Econex analysis, said the rebate was intended to “alleviate some pressure on the state [

Tygerberg Hospital performs its first deep brain stimulation
Posted on Leave a comment
A man with tardive dystonia became the first adult to undergo deep brain stimulation (DBS) at a Western Cape state hospital. His condition drastically improved following the procedure at Tygerberg.
Until now it had only been performed on a few children at the Red Cross Children’s Hospital.
The dystonia was a side effect of an anti-psychopathic medication prescribed to the patient for bipolar disorder. However, the dystonia persisted after the medication was discontinued. By the time the DBS operation was performed, the patient had already been confined to bed for six months.
The operation was performed by Dr Armin Gretschel, a neurosurgeon with Stellenbosch University’s Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences (FMHS). The equipment was provided by Medtronic.
According to Gretschel, two very thin electrodes were implanted in the globus pallidus on both sides of the brain to block the electrical impulses causing the movement disorder. Healthy brain tissue is n

Edenvale hospitaal erg gevandaliseer deur ontevrede pasiënte
Posted on Leave a comment
Sekere dele van die Sizwe hospitaal in Edenvale is erg beskadig deur ‘n brand wat deur ontevrede pasiënte aangerig is.
Die aanleiding daartoe was dat ‘n verpleegster dwelms en drank gekonfiskeer het wat pasiënte ingesmokkel het. Dit het hulle woedend gemaak.
Hulle het daarop deur die hospitaal beweeg en enigiets wat breekbaar was, gebreek. Die gebou is erg gevandaliseer en die kombuis en ruskamers is skynbaar totaal vernietig.
Die hospitaal spesialiseer in die behandeling van vigs en tuberkulose.

The poor performance of the Rand is definitely not good news for motorists. The Rand fell more than 8%, partly due to the mess on the Turkish financial markets. Although the oil price is relatively stable and even slightly lower, the weak rand will push the fuel price upward. The rand also visibly weakened after..
