(Fighting New Coronary Pneumonia) Mandela's youngest daughter's funeral was held
China News Service, Johannesburg, July 17 (Reporter Wang Xi) The funeral of Xinqi Mandela, the youngest daughter of the late former South African President Mandela, was held in Johannesburg on the 17th.
According to Xin Qi's family, Xin Qi Mandela was previously infected with the new crown pneumonia virus, but the cause of death was not disclosed.
In this regard, South African President Ramaphosa said that this time from the Mandela family confirmed that it is tantamount to major support for South Africa to fight the new coronary pneumonia epidemic. This move will encourage the public to accept those who are infected, rather than fear and hostility. "I want to thank the Mandela family for this important attitude, and they are willing to share this news with the people of South Africa."
Ramaphosa pointed out that if people want to overcome the new coronary pneumonia epidemic, especially to prevent the spread of the virus among the population, they must be open and honest. However, it is regrettable that in some areas of South Africa, people have reported a hostile attitude towards people with new coronary pneumonia, which makes these infected people dare not tell the true situation, thereby increasing the risk of continued virus transmission. Obviously, this practice of the Mandela family has made a good start for the fight against the new coronary pneumonia epidemic in South Africa.
Sinki Mandela was born in 1960 and is the youngest daughter of Nelson Mandela and Winnie Mandela. Since 2015, she has been the South African ambassador to Denmark. (Finish)
