President Cyril Ramaphosa has nominated the Cuban Medical Brigade for the 2021 Nobel Peace Prize, but the DA and Action SA are not happy, saying South Africaâs health workers were more deserving.
The Cuban white coats have been assisting all over the world during the pandemic, in countries such as China, Italy and many African states. There were at least 3 700 Cuban medical professionals dispatched around the globe in the fight against Covid-19.
They arrived in South Africa to much fanfare in April last year.
