Contributing to debate in the National Assembly, Sibanda said staff at the city’s largest referral hospital lacked discipline.

“The other challenge that we have is that of doctors. Some of the doctors come to the hospital drunk,” she said.

“There is an honourable member who talked about breathalysers in Parliament. We need breathalysers for these doctors as well so that we can find out if they are sober before they attend to patients.”
