Sewage leak shuts Oncology at Joburg Hospital
20 November 2017
A massive sewage leak from a blocked pipe has flooded parts of the fourth floor at the Charlotte Maxeke Johannesburg Hospital and forced the closure of the Radiation Oncology unit that treats cancer patients.
I visited the hospital this morning and saw the aftermath of smelly water in the corridors.
See pictures here, here and here.
The blockage first started on Friday afternoon and unsuccessful efforts were made over the weekend to unblock the pipe.
