The DA in Gauteng has criticised the provincial Department of Health for spending R32.5 million out of its HIV/Aids grant to pay 28 Cuban doctors who were roped in to assist in the fight against the Covid-19 pandemic.

The doctors were contracted from May 15 last year until last month.

Department spokesperson Kwara Kekana said the R32m budget was inclusive of remuneration, accommodation and transport, adding that their contracts have since come to an end.
