Life affecting issues

President Ramaphosa announced the lockdown of the country. The problem with this announcement is that street venders and those who hustle to put food on the table for their families, should stay at home while the big retail stores are operating. In my opinion i doubt the president considered the poor people. The least he could have done is to atleast offer them an insentive to support them throughout these twenty-one days. This lockdown will force families to go to bed with empty stomach, while the parents are blaming themselves for not being able to provide. Its tochure for them. Its better to die of Coronavirus because its a deadly virus that cannot be cured, then to die of hunger that could have been prevented. Lets get talking people. What are your views on this issue.

South Africa cannot afford to pay for everybody's medical needs. If it happens that more than fifty percent of the citizens get infected by Covid-19 Coronavirus, in my opinion, most people who will die are the black and poor people. I think this virus is here to reduce the over population in this country. I have a fear as black person. I ask my self if i ever test positive how will i survive. They will take me away and who knows what will become of me after that!! Being isolated from those you love and who matter most in your life is unimaginably hard and painful. That how people who tested positive on Coronavirus feel, at least that how i would feel if i were to be taken away from my family and my life. This virus seems to be taking over our lives. It is detecting how we should life. I cannot help the thoughts on my hamd that this virus could be one of those way to influence how we live our lives. Living in fear unable to hug amd kiss those we love. What if this virus is here ...

Load Shading to continue this weekend. After several days of stage four load shedding due to a trip at Koeberg's Unit 1, the power utility announced that they will implement stage two. These changes were implemented this morning at 07:00am. Eskom said. "This will help increase generation capacity and ease the scale of load shedding." This seems to great news for businesses. It has been work as normal to businesses in boardwalk mall as load shedding is allocated later when most businesses are closed. This do not only bring joy to the business sector but also to South Africa  as a whole. This reduces the stress levels.

Welcome to my blog. I am Sthandiwe Mjoka from Ixopo, Highflats currently doing Public Relations Management at the University of Zululand. I am interested in what is happening around us and how these issues affect our daily lives.
