PSA warns expired PPE could expose Bongani TB Hospital staff to health risks

# The Public Servants Association has raised concerns about expired masks reportedly being issued to staff at Bongani TB Hospital in Mpumalanga. The union argues this is a serious health and safety concern because staff at the hospital may be exposed to airborne tuberculosis and other respiratory hazards. PSA’s Phumzile Zulu has urged the provincial Department of Health to investigate how the expired masks were issued and take steps to prevent this from happening again.
