"I thank #Botswana and #SouthAfrica for detecting, sequencing and reporting this variant so rapidly. It is deeply concerning to me that those countries are now being penalized by others for doing the right thing."

“This epidemic will pass.

But it is up to us to determine how long it will last, how damaging it will be, and how long it will take our economy and our country to recover.

If we act together, if we act now, and if we act decisively, we will overcome it.” #CoronaVirusSA
