Minister, hospital CEOs to meet

Johannesburg - Health Minister Aaron Motsoaledi will meet hospital chief executives over the next two days to discuss the country's ailing public health system.

Health department spokesperson Fidel Hadebe said on Wednesday the government's ten-point healthcare plan and HIV/Aids would be discussed at the meetings.

The minister would meet chief executives and district managers from inland hospitals in Boksburg on Thursday. Coastal CEOs and managers would meet the minister at the University of KwaZulu-Natal on Friday.

Earlier this month the minister released what he described as shocking figures showing a huge Aids-related leap in South Africa's death rate. He blamed the scale of the pandemic on the denialist policies pursued by former president Thabo Mbeki's government.

Motsoaledi called for urgent implementation of a campaign to create a "massive change in behaviour and attitude" towards Aids among citizens.

Latest comment in South Africa

Francois says... Oops, I cannot think of a by election in the 1940s that the Nats won - they won the general election in 1948 and even Smuts could not hold his seat. Even if you take the general education levels of the Afrikaner that voted for the Nats in 1948 and compare it to the general education level that is given to the average previously disadvantaged kid in SA today after 17 years of democracy, I will bet that the former is better. At least calculators have not been invented. Having said all of that to repudiate your statement, Fanie, what is your point? You cannot change the past, but if we want SA to be prosperous, we need to EDUCATE ALL. Not only because of the political insight it might provide, but simply because educated people have a better chance to compete for jobs over the whole world. You are an educated man, teach the kids in Aliwal North proper maths so that they can also become proper engineers. Read the article...
