Fear has gripped a Limpopo village after 19 miners in the area tested positive for the deadly Covid - 19.
The mineworkers, employees at Marula Platinum Mine in Diphale village, tested positive to the virus - prompting the mine to shut down operations.
One of the mineworkers, who wished to remain anonymous, told Sowetan he was worried that some of his colleagues who travelled from other provinces could be spreading the virus at work. According to the miner, many of those who tested positive were working at a plant section and blamed those who travelled from afar.
