South Africa is officially on the fourth wave of the covid 19 pandemic. Health Minister Joe Phaahla made the announcement. He says, while they are still trying to understand the newly discovered Omicron variant, what they have discovered so far is that the variant is highly infectious. Phaahla has raised concern over the sharp increase in the number of positive cases in Gauteng and fears that the holiday season may accelerate the variant to spread to other provinces. Over 11-thousand new positive cases have been identified in South Africa and over 8-thousand of those were in Gauteng alone.
