The provincial government says seven of the 11 Covid-19 positive patients in the Amajuba and Umzinyathi districts have already been discharged and instructed to self-isolate at home.
Two buses which have been converted into state-of-the-art mobile clinics have been donated by businessmen in Newcastle, KwaZulu-Natal, to assist the provincial government and the department of health in their efforts to curb the spread of the Covid-19 pandemic in the district.
The provincial government said at least 10 residents in the Amajuba district have tested positive for the coronavirus thus far, and that last week one resident from the Umzinyathi District tested positive at a healthcare facility in Newcastle.
