If you or someone you know has been affected by medication shortages, please take a few minutes to complete our questionnaire. Your responses will help us gather critical evidence for submission to the South African Human Rights Commission (SAHRC) so we can hold those responsible accountable and demand urgent action.
PLEASE NOTE: Even if you choose to share your name and contact details, your answers remain strictly confidential.
ActionSA’s request for a Human Rights Commission investigation is based on information received from healthcare workers, patients, and families affected by the medication shortage. This in conjunction with the shocking conditions observed at healthcare facilities we visited in KZN, including Eshowe Provincial Hospital, Benedictine Hospital, and Osindisweni Hospital.
ActionSA believes that the KZN Department of Health, led by MEC Nomagugu Simelane, has displayed shocking incompetence and a near-complete abdication of responsibility, both by blatantly denying the existence of the crisis and further failing to respond to the numerous concerns raised about the devastating impact it is having on communities.
Even if you choose to share your name and contact details, your answers remain strictly confidential.
