Thrashing of Joburg Hospital is unacceptable
29 April 2018
The disruptive actions of striking workers at the Charlotte Maxeke Johannesburg Hospital are unacceptable and need to be dealt with decisively.
Throughout last week they trashed the hospital and on Tuesday police fired rubber bullets to disperse them. Some EFF supporters were also amongst those who had to be expelled from the hospital.
I visited the hospital on Thursday last week and found mounds of trash, including medical waste, scattered in various places. A cold drink dispensing machine was also tossed on its side.
