Security is critical to ensure deadlines are met to reopen Charlotte Maxeke Johannesburg hospital
9 May 2022
The Democratic Alliance is disappointed that the Accident and Emergency Unit at the Charlotte Maxeke Johannesburg Hospital (CMJH) is not fully reopened this week, but will only accept patients in a phased manner, mostly because the CT Scanner has not yet been repaired.
This highlights the need for proper security as the Scanner was vandalised despite R40 million spent annually on security at the hospital.
It appears that there are criminal syndicates that could still sabotage the reopening of other hospital departments.
