According to minister in the presidency Jackson Mthembu, Mantashe was admitted on Monday on the advice of his family doctor.
“Today, Minister Mantashe was admitted to hospital on the advise of their doctor for better medical attention and monitoring,” Mthembu said. Mantashe, aged 65, tested positive along with wife Nolwandle last week. His wife continues to quarantine at home.Three premiers David Makhura of Gauteng, Job Mokgoro of North West - who has also been admitted to hospital - and Alan Winde of the Western Cape have all recently tested positive for the virus that’s currently reaching its peak in the country.“We will continue to give the Mantashe family all the support they need during this time,” said Mthembu.
“We wish both minister and Mrs Mantashe a speedy recovery from this invisible enemy and we are quite confident that they will emerge victorious against the coronavirus.” Two days before getting his results last week, Mantashe delivered an eulogy on behalf of President Cyril Ramaphosa at the funeral service of AmaRharhabe Queen Noloyiso Sandile who died from Covid-19 related illness."The grave threat posed by the coronavirus pandemic is not one of the urban areas alone, of the rich or of the poor. The passing of the queen as a result of coronavirus serves as a stark reminder that none of us are immune," Mantashe said.
