Limpopo recorded more than 24 000 child deaths between 2013 and 2022 and opposition parties are calling on the provincial health department to explain it. A recent response to the Democratic Alliance’s parliamentary questions to Minister of Health Joe Phaahla indicated that the province recorded 24 744 child deaths in public health facilities over a 10-year period from 1 January, 2013 to December 2022.
The questions were raised by Michele Clarke, member of parliament and DA shadow minister of health, this year. Yesterday, DA member of the Limpopo Legislature Risham Maharaj, who is also DA spokesperson on health, said the large number of deaths in children in the province was worrisome.
