Chido Mbewu/ Professor Solwayo Ngwenya has raised alarm on the possibility of looming mass deaths a result of a spike in Covid-19 cases in the second wave to hit the country.

Wrote Ngwenya on Twitter, “Coronavirus: the two sister countries had recovery rates of 95% in the first wave, causing relaxation of lockdowns, and relaxed populations. The virus returned in a more devastating second wave, look at the falling recovery rates!! We are tottering on the brink; mass deaths!!!”
