BPF applauds govt's coronavirus fight

Being Covid-19 free is not a coincidence, it is testament to the work of our people. With the exception of the recklessness of President Masisi who travelled to Namibia under the circumstances, and a few other citizens who keep disregarding set protocols, we are doing well so far as a country in response to a virus that has shut down life as we know it across the world. 

We encourage the government and people of Botswana to continue following advise from health experts including testing if one has recently travelled or has symptoms, regularly washing hands with warm water and soap, hand sanitizing and social distancing. Social distancing is a key aspect of beating the virus since the ‘virus does not move and is moved by people’. If we isolate ourselves as much as is possible we will greatly contribute to efforts to thwart the virus, and be doing our patriotic duty.
