KAARO KARUNGI | XINHUA – Namibia’s hospitals are full to capacity, the health ministry said on Saturday as the southern African nation battles a surge in COVID-19 cases.
“The numbers of new cases are progressively increasing on a daily basis especially in Windhoek residential areas,” a statement from the ministry said as the country recorded 391 new cases, the highest number of new infections in a week.
“Residents of these areas are visibly not complying to public health measures. Hospitals are now full,” the ministry added.
