# The DA in Gauteng is concerned that the Charlotte Maxeke Johannesburg Hospital is still not fully compliant with fire prevention measures. A fire broke out in ward 196 on the ninth floor on Monday afternoon, with no deaths or injuries reported. The blaze was reportedly started by a disgruntled patient, who set a bed alight in a cubicle. The DA’s Jack Bloom says they will continue to press for adequate fire prevention and suppression in all public hospitals:
