This in 2017 when I was minister of health in Namibia

Coronavirus has shaken the world economy , especially travel industry . I have never seen Dubai International Airport this much empty ,I can almost walk with my eyes closed or hear a pin drop ! no pasanger ! scary but real ! Namibia must be ready to respond appropriately !

Director of Health in Omusati Regikn , Alfons Amoomo and Police in Omusati deserve applause. They have at least managed to get those who stole medicines at Odimbwa Clinic arrested. I am told the second suspect has been locked up today . Well done !

3 , as announced by ministry of health.

The concern of expectant mothers & those who just delivered seem to be genuine and deserve our attention and solutions One way I can think of is to enter into agreement with shops that sell these items to deliver them at ANC and Maternity wards on COD.

A clear breach of lockdown as everyone presents with a travel permit at the road block . All reportedly issued by regional or local councilors. Roadblocks are now potential hotspots for transmission of the virus as people conglomerates here !

This is mockery of the lockdown strategy . People escaping the extended lockdown from northern regions

Another shocking state of affairs at the ATM yesterday . Queues of people literally tagged together. How do Namibians understand Social Distancing ? Or we just don’t give a demn when it comes to money ?

I will be at ease and feel a much comfortable if we can , as a bear minimum , text at least 0.0025 % of the Namibian Population . This will translates into a total of 6250 people . This is much better assuring than the current 499 people we have tested so far.

The scariest thing in Windhoek now is the fact that there is apparently no more beds available for anyone with Covid 19 diseases . At least not in private hospitals . If this is true then those who advocated for Rhino garment factory to be converted to Covid center ,had a point

Every time one attends a Private Healthcare Hospital in Namibia,one is acutely reminded of the absolute need for UHC .

Time to rethink accepting Covid 19 tests results presented by travelers to Namibia on arrival unless truly validated by our systems .

Also time to consider holding the passports of travelers/visitors to Namibia who test positive for Covid 19 when they are about to leave Namibia and are put in isolations in Namibia .

Three Jordanian Nationals and a Palestinian , who came to Namibia with apparent interest in AgriBusiness , escaped from a isolation in a local Hotel 4 days ago after possibly paying someone at a local laboratory and obtained fake negative results .

I was shocked to hear this...as I did much to facilitate their coming to Namibia and arrange meetings with some business personalities here and even some regional governors . Only to hear they escaped from isolations !

This clearly call for a review or reconsiderations of some of our policies with travelers to and from Namibia in respect of Covid 19 screening & isolations

Defense Lawyer , Eric Nelson , really trying his best.but we all know... George Floyd was cold bloodily murdered by Chauvin.
