When Naija recorded our first case of covid19, South Africans were laughing at us and making jokes of how it will deal with us and our 200 million plus population.

Now they have 150 confirmed cases as of last night and 20 out of the 150 were locally transmitted. The Health Minister said last night that the number will pass 200 this morning. Now they gonna use almost R38million to build the fence instead of acquiring more beds and quarantine equipments

The fence they are building, unknowingly they are helping Zimbabweans who have not recorded any case of covid19. We that live in Gauteng province (Johannesburg) are the hardest hit compared to other province. Worst case, the locals (South African blacks) are not taking this serious and it's going to backfire pretty soon.

Let me kuku go and search for Chloroquine sef, I don use to Chloro from my childhood in NAIJA. I know say e go scratch me die but prevention is better than cure. Before you know it now dem go begin say na we Nigerians carry am come South Africa.

My people, make una keep safe jare.

This is South Africa, not your Naija. Haven't local hotels offered their premises to be used for quarantine purposes when needed? We got the "more beds" issue sorted out, now it's time to face the elephant in the room, which is the porous border between Zimbabwe & South Africa, to prevent this from spreading any more than it already has. Killing two birds with one stone. Whatever happens, you better believe that South Africans will tackle it together as a country, with no cost spared.

SA trying to relate it with Corona Virus.

The primary purpose is because of migrants from Zimbabwe. SA just detest foreigners

.yes

TMKsouth:


I think recent events in SA have shown we don't like u either. And WE STRUCK FIRST!!! so... BOOOOOOM - back at yah!!

Good. So why are you whining here?

WorWorBoy:
one question why are you stalking me? are you gay?

Try another insult - the gay one doesn't work in South Africa.

Bigleaf1006:


There we go again, blaming others for crime your people are active participants. Are Nigerians solely responsible for drugs,high murder rates,arms proloferation,car jackings,robberies,govt corruption,rape etc in SA?

The last I checked,SA is way ahead of Nigeria in all these indices- there are more illegal arms in Soweto alone than the entire west africa!!

Nope, Nigerians aren't sorely responsible for those crimes, BUT! When a certain group keeps popping up on the news for a variety of crimes it creates a perception among people and it's natural. There's a reason why South Africans don't view Ethiopians, for example the way they view Nigerians. Africans in general actually view Nigerians the same way, and we can't all be wrong! Another thing, any country in the world can tolerate it's own bad apples but not external ones.

And lasty, Soweto can't possibly have illegal arms more than west Africa since the same Soweto is not even a violent place. Again, making up stories as we go

This convo is beginning to run in circles. Tell me when have we not appected that HIV is a homegrown problem?

So virus don't jump fence. They don't know what to use their money to do

TMKsouth:

XhosaNostra... The News this morning...
SA’s healthcare system has only around 3 000 critical care hospital beds available … and it is not enough
06:00 20/03/2020 Sarah Evans
South Africa appears to be woefully underprepared for a serious escalation in Covid-19 cases, with roughly 3 000 out of about 7 000 critical care beds available between the public and private healthcare sectors, according to best estimates.

On Thursday, News24 reported approximate projections used by the government indicated 80% of Covid-19 infections would be mild, while 15 to 20% might require hospital admissions. About 5% would require critical care.

According to those projections, a slow response to the Covid-19 outbreak could result in anywhere between 87 900 and 351 000 deaths that could cause the health system to be completely overwhelmed.

It also estimates that at an infection rate of 10%, more than 100 000 people will require a form of hospitalisation at some stage and at a 20% rate, more than 500 000 would need hospitalisation.

Even in the west, almost all English speaking black Africans are often suspected to be Nigerian. Just recently a cameroonian was deported and dumped in nigeria.its also similar in SA.
The envy u guys have for us makes u push the stereotype button against us instinctually against all common sense.

There are more illegal arms in SA than the entire West Africa.

GAYson & SausageWORS, sitting in a tree. K-I-S-S-I-N-G (and worse ).

This ones want to measure up with China... How many day are they using to build the fence, and with what kind of material.....

elonize:
its a useless thought cm from ur kind...I wonder who dey put this things into una head

Nor go pass devil who else?

You are proving my point exactly! Why is anyone doing something illegal suspected to be a Nigerian in the first place? That's cause you guys have set a precedent. Simple

I can only laugh at the " envy" part

Beds are still available, but as I've already stated, we've got other options available. Aren't some people already taken in by the Ranch Resort, the returnees from China? You think South Africa & South Africans will just let its people die because there's a shortage of beds in healthcare facilities? That's not going to happen. You wait & see.

IronGalaxy:

dislike of or prejudice against people from other countries.Thats the Google definition of xenophobia. You dislike Zimbabweans and what more to proof this than this border wall nonsense backed by government propaganda.

I'm not at all. SA has the exact problem of illegal migration as the US does. Trumps right on this one - Mexico is taking ZERO care/responsibility regarding the issue. And so is Zimbabwe.

U won't understand coz your own country is a failed state merrily net exporting it's citizens too.

U should invite Zimbabweans to your hospitals once an outbreak occurs there - which it will. U LACK FORESIGHT & PLANNING ABILITY.

Between Zim and SA which one is ravaged by HIV? Both SA and Zim are same people except fir for that boundary created for you by your European masters you worship

I said SA are bastards they are the only African country that should not be part of the continent in tbe first place somewhere in Amazo junhle would have house these animals best.

A race with no origin damn bitches. I hate SA with everything inside me. Let them go and build gallows or gas chambers like Nazi, bastards.

Very wicked and so annoying bollocks.

Very hateful bitches.
