KZN Health continue to lean on Cuban doctors
Updated | By Nomfundo Ngcobo
We've seen the number of new infections decline in recent weeks, but KZN Health says the province will continue to lean on a team of Cuban doctors for support.

MEC Nomagugu Simelane-Zulu says some of these medical experts are specialists that KZN needs and they've been making a difference in hospitals in rural areas.
She says if there's a second wave of infections, the province will be ready.
"We are going to continue to utilise them in our own hospitals.
