The Democratic Alliance has asked the new Health Minister, Barbara Hogan, to investigate the shortage of vaccinations and critical medicines in Limpopo.
The DA says that over the years, they have sent numerous requests, to former health minister Manto Tshabalala-Msimang, but their requests have been ignored.
The DA’s spokesperson on Health, Mike Waters, said that during his visits to some hospitals in Limpopo, he discovered that basic medicines were not available.
“We’ve written to the Minister to make her aware of the situation in the province and we are hoping that she will act on this information and make sure that medicines and vaccines are available at the hospitals.”
