MBABANE – Could this be an indication of another wave?
This question comes to mind following the recent shooting up of new COVID-19
cases. The country recorded 102 COVID-19 cases, four recoveries and eight
admissions yesterday. The results were received from a total of 430 tests. There
were no fatalities recorded. According to the Director of Health Services, Dr
Vusi Magagula, they have been noting the increase in the cases.
Magagula said they had not come to a point where they could tell whether it was
another wave as they were still to check whether it was another variant or not
before they could issue a statement. He mentioned that when comparing with South
Africa, they realised the upward movements in the cases recorded on a daily
basis. Meanwhile, to date, there are 1 397 COVID-19 fatalities recorded since
the pandemic outbreak in March 2020. The cumulative number of positive cases in
the country stands at 70 496, while the total number of recoveries is now 68
818.
