Health Minister Breaks The Law
Oh this is rich. Minister of Health Manto Tshabalala-Msimang’s proclamations on the benefits of beetroot, lemon and olive oil as an effective treatment for AIDS is possibly a crime.
The South African Medical Association has asked the minister to stop making claims that have not been tested by the Medicines Control Council and that ”...until that is done, you cannot go onto public fora and claim that it is therapeutic”. So who’s going to take a bet on what happens first? Manto’s censure (or possible arrest) or the “reorganisation” of the MCC and the further ignoring of SAMA by the health deparment?
Health Minister To Debate Shadow Counterpart 1
Mark this down on your TV ‘what to watch’ diary! Health minister Manto Tshabala-Msimag is set to debate the DA shadow health minister Gareth Morgan this coming Sunday on SABC1 at 18:30. Considering that usually ANC politicians refuse to even acknowledge the existence of the DA except to dismiss them outright this could be interesting.
It's Your Fault I'm Not Doing My Job 1
You are making my task difficult. You are misleading the people, and it hurts
That’s our esteemed Minister of Health Manto Tshabalala-Msimang telling the media that they are making it harder for the Dept of Health to educate about HIV/AIDS because of their ‘sensationalistic’ reporting about Jacob Zuma’s idiotic remarks about showering after having unprotected sex with an HIV positive person.
Manto, I hate to be the one to tell you this but if the former Vice President of South Africa does not know the proper way to prevent transmission of HIV then you’re not doing your job. If the former Chairperson of the National AIDS Council believes in untruths that showering after sex reduces the chances of transmission then you’re not doing your job.
In short, you’re not doing your job.
