The City of Johannesburg is looking to roll out ten mobile clinics over the next few months to serve a number of communities around the city.
It delivered its second mobile clinic in Lawely on Monday.
Mayor Herman Mashaba says the clinic will move through five different areas from Monday to Friday.
It will serve the community of region G.
— Herman Mashaba, Johannesburg Mayor
Looking at our massive backlog in terms of healthcare facilities in the city of Johannesburg, to build a clinic will take you at least three years, the idea of having mobile clinics made sense. We were fortunate enough, earlier in the year PPC donated our first one.
