The total number of positive cases in the country currently stands at seven, with the Western Cape having recorded its first case.
The department said the latest confirmed case was a 39-year-old male patient, who was admitted to a private health facility in Cape Town.
Health Department spokesperson Foster Mohale: “We’ve noted that almost all cases or patients are living with chronic illnesses such as HIV and this suggests a higher probability of immuno-compromised unless the patients are adhering to prescribed treatment.”
