Durban - The South African Covid-19 Modelling Consortium Epidemic Explorer, an open access website, has provided data that showed Covid-19 infections were down prior to Easter and stakeholders were working to keep it that way.
The website was built to analyse the resurgence risk, present metrics to prepare for future outbreaks, and monitor Covid-19 hospital admissions.
It is a collaboration between the National Institute for Communicable Diseases, Modelling and Simulation Hub, Africa at the UCT, South African Centre for Epidemiological Modelling and Analysis at Stellenbosch University and the Health Economics and Epidemiology Research Office at the Wits University in partnership with Boston University.
Zolani Kgosietsile “Kgosie” Matthews was appointed Group Chief Executive Officer (CEO) at the Passenger Rail Agency of South Africa (Prasa) on Saturday 27 February 2021 at the Langa train station in Cape Town.
Matthews will replace Thandeka Mabija, the former human resources head who was appointed as acting CEO in 2019 when Minister Fikile Mbalula fired the board of Prasa and the acting CEO, Nkosinathi Sishi.
Mbablula said it’s a new era for Prasa, but added: “The old chapter cannot be closed until we have stabilised corporate governance, management, commuter rail operations and resume the course towards modernising passenger rail in the country”.
