[Most of these hospitals are in Black areas. These are failing government hospitals. Jan]Patients suffer without hot water in nine Gauteng hospitals
12 June 2025
Patients in nine Gauteng public hospitals have suffered without hot water as the winter cold has bitten.
This is confirmed by Health MEC Nomantu Nkomo-Ralehoko in a written reply to my questions in the Gauteng Legislature. She says the following hospitals have had hot water problems since 1 May this year:
– Bertha Gxowa Hospital,
– Cullinan Care and Rehab,
– Sterkfontein Hospital,
– Edenvale Hospital,
– Lenasia Hospital,
– Kalafong Hospital,
– Weskoppies Hospital,
– Jubilee Hospital,
– Tshwane Rehabilitation Care Hospital.
Reasons for a lack of hot water include leaking steam pipes and broken boilers, compressors, and heat tanks.
The department says: "The critical equipment such as boilers, chillers, heat pump, air conditioners etc. are old and were not serviced appropriately for a long time. The impact is that due to their heavy usage in winter the department experiences a lot of breakdowns."
I suspect they are underplaying the hot water problem as I have received complaints from patients at several other hospitals.
It is inexcusable that sick people have to wash in cold water in winter.
The department says R100 million is set aside to recapitalise hospital equipment. This is a long overdue investment, but needs to be spent properly, unlike failed projects in the past.
A DA-led provincial government would ensure consistent maintenance of critical hospital equipment, and timely purchase of new equipment when necessary.

Video: DWUMS: Defenseless White Urban Males & Learned White Helplessness
I discuss Whites who are out of their depth and helpless when they realise with horror the truth about Liberalism and Capitalism. I also talk about how Whites are caught up in fake problems that are the result of having so many moral factors that they need to take into account. Even here in South Africa we have helpless urban Whites who get flustered over nothing.
South African Jews are worried Muslims might kill them: Military camp sets alarm bells ringing
All of these Jewish fears are highly overblown. There is no proof that this military camp, despite it being illegal, was in any way going to be a threat to Jews.

Im very pleased to be giving away this old classic, which is designed only for white people and it includes commandments for the White Race!NB: This is NOT normal religious spiritual stuff. This is based on NATURE, REALITY, HISTORY and SCIENCE.NB: NB: Ben Klassen was a very far thinking White man who was concerned for our race. The Church of Creativity was his creation. The Church of Creativity existed in America, Britain and even in South Africa. In South Africa it existed in the early 1990s and was run by a Professor. The concept of Whites as CREATORS is very import. CREATORS say: ‘Our Race is our Religion‘.
