One of the worst insults to thousands of South African healthcare heroes that have worked tirelessly to save lives over the past year.
They deserve so much better than this government.

It is already a stain on our country that 217 Cuban Doctors were deployed in SA at a cost of R400 million when South African doctors sat at home, unemployed by a government that has frozen an estimated 40 000 medical posts.
Now to insult them in this way, is disgraceful.
Government chooses to squander health money on bringing cuban doctors to SA and yet leaves 168 community service doctors (me being one of them) and 158 medical interns unemployed for next year. @ferialhaffajee@DrZweliMkhize@HealthZA@eNCA@ewnreporter
how can u have the same problem of delayed placements every year? why is it that there's a deadline for applications but no deadline for placements to be released? what happened between aug-nov? icsp needs to answer these questions @drzwelimkhize@enca@sabcnews#DoctorsInLimbo
