    Care | Dignity | Participation | Truth | Compassion COVID-19 Laboratory testing sites Risk assessment, screening and laboratory testing for COVID-19 The information below should give invididuals a clear understanding of the process for risk assessment, screening and laboratory testing of patients, visitors, staff, doctors and other healthcare providers at Netcare facilities: • Risk assessment, screening and laboratory testing of ill individuals Persons who are ill are allowed access to the Netcare facility via the emergency department for risk assessment and screening. Thereafter the person will be clinically assessed by a doctor and laboratory testing for COVID-19 will subsequently be done if indicated. • Laboratory testing of persons sent by external doctors for COVID-19 laboratory testing at a Netcare Group facility Individuals who have been sent to a Netcare Group facility for COVID-19 laboratory testing by a doctor who is not practising at the Netcare Group facility will not be allowed access to the laboratories inside the Netcare facility, unless the person requires medical assistance. This brochure which contains a list of Ampath, Lancet and Pathcare laboratories will be made available to individuals not needing medical assistance, to guide them as to where they can have the testing done. In the case of the person needing medical assistance, they will be directed to the emergency department. No person with COVID-19 risk will be allowed into a Netcare facility for laboratory testing without having consulted a doctor first. • Risk assessment and screening of all persons wanting to enter a Netcare Group facility Visitors, staff, external service providers, doctors and other healthcare providers are being risk assessed at established points outside of Netcare Group hospitals, primary care centres and mental health facilities, prior to them entering the facility.

    MEETING HELD vJS.JULl&ÍO ACQUISITION OF PORTION OF THE FARM DIEPKLOOF NO. 9. (Councillor -.Thomas and van Vuuren entered the meeting during the discussion of this item at 2.50 and 3.40 p.m. respectively.) After discussion, Councillor Goldberg suggested that because of the urgent need for improved housing conditions and as the Department of Native Affairs was anxious to take immediate action for the re-housing of surplus Natives from Alexandra the only realistic approach would be for the Council to relinquish its claim to the farm Diepkloof No. 9 to enable the Native Resettlement Board to proceed with the housing scheme. The Secretary for Native Affairs should also be informed that the Council would be prepared to assist wherever possible. He was, however, opposed to the imposition of any conditions on the surrender of the Council's r claim to the ground such as a condition that the Government should make • other ground available for the Council's new housing programme. It should however be indicated to the Department of Native Affairs that the Council welcomed the move on the part of the Government to improve the housing conditions in Alexandra and that in spite of the shortage of suitable ground for its own housing schemes the Council would abandon its claim to the Diepkloof area, but proposed to make representations for other ground at a later stage. After further discussion (shorthand notes taken and filed), it was RESOLVED? (a) That the Secretary for Native Affairs be informed — _ (i) that the Council welcomes the steps being taken by the Government to improve housing conditions in Alexandra Township; (ii) that in spite of the Council's urgent need for additional ground for its own housing programme, the Committee accepts the position that the Government has decided that the portion of Diepkloof No.

    Infrastructures of Property and Debt: making affordable housing, race and place in Johannesburg A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Siân Butcher IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Advisors: Helga Leitner and Eric Sheppard Department: Geography, Environment and Society July 2016 ©2016 by Siân Butcher Acknowledgements This dissertation is not only about debt, but has been made possible through many debts, but also gifts of various kinds. I want to start by thanking the following for their material support of my graduate study at the University of Minnesota (UMN), my dissertation research and my writing time. Institutionally, my homes have been the department of Geography, Environment and Society (GES) and the Interdisciplinary Center for the Study of Global Change (ICGC). ICGC supported me for two years in partnership with the Center for Humanities Research (CHR) at the University of the Western Cape (UWC) through the generous ICGC-Mellon Scholar fellowship. Pre-dissertation fieldwork between 2010-2011 was supported by GES, ICGC, the York-Wits Global Suburbanisms project, and the Social Science Research Council’s Dissertation Proposal Development Fellowship (SSRC DPDF). Dissertation fieldwork in Johannesburg was made possible by UMN’s Global Spotlight Doctoral Dissertation International Research Grant (2012- 2013) and the immeasurable support of friends and family. My two years of writing was enabled by a semester’s residency at the CHR at UWC in Cape Town; a Doctoral Dissertation Fellowship from the University of Minnesota (2014-5), and a home provided by my partner Trey Smith and then my mother, Sue Butcher.
