*'Scared' Health Workers Turn Away Patients* *Follow Pindula on WhatsApp for daily new updates* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va84dngJP21B2nWeyM3v?gh Health workers at some of Zimbabwe’s public hospitals are turning away patients for fear of contracting the dreaded novel coronavirus disease due to ignorance and a lack of Protective Personal Equipment (PPE). This was revealed by Mpilo Central Hospital Clinical Director Dr Solwayo Ngwenya during an interview with Sunday News. He said: ---------- *HOT DEALS:* *itel A70 - (128GB, 3GB RAM) $89,* *itel A70 - (256GB, 4GB RAM) $99* *itel P40 (128GB, 4GB), (6000mAh) $99* *itel P40 (64GB, 4G), (6000mAh) $93* *LATEST: itel S24 (128) $124; S24 (256GB) $159* Cash on Delivery in Harare & Bulawayo.

I have been saying that there will be ignorance leading to chaos leading to mass deaths and this is already happening. > We have a situation whereby health workers are now labelling everyone as a Covid-19 patient and this is going to kill people unnecessarily. > This morning (Friday) the CEO (chief executive officer) and I at Mpilo tried to have an educational talk with members of staff and they appear not to be receptive to any educational changes. > They have made up their mind that every patient in Zimbabwe is a Covid-19 patient which is quite grossly ignorant on its own. So yes, indeed this is a fear that I have always had. Meanwhile, Ecosure, a subsidiary of Cassava Smartech, owned by billionaire and philanthropist Strive Masiyiwa, has offered free PPE, among a host of other incentives, for all doctors and nurses who attend duties during the fight against the epidemic. *More: Sunday News* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
