Zimbos choking our health system: SA

BY SILAS NKALA
SOUTH Africa’s Department of Health in Musina has raised concern over the influx of Zimbabweans seeking treatment, especially maternity services in that country.

This emerged during a Zimbabwe-South Africa cross-border migration management stakeholders meeting held last Friday in Musina, where officials from that country complained over the influx of Zimbabwean patients.

The meeting was attended by officials from the International Organisation for Migration (IOM) and various government departments and ministries from both countries, including Health, Home Affairs and Foreign Affairs, among others.
