SA soccer legends back health workers

Health workers are at the forefront of the battle against Covid-19.

Many countries around the world are highlighting the vital role that frontline health workers are playing in the fight against the pandemic, putting their lives on the line to treat patients.

In many instances this is done without the necessary equipment to protect them and has led to a high mortality rate among doctors and nurses at the forefront of the battle.

While this situation is improving in many countries, Kaizer Motaung, the chairperson of South African giants Kaizer Chiefs, based at Naturena Village, said it is vital that they receive the support they need to stay the course in the fight.
