Comprehensive US Consumer News and Commercial Channel (CNBC), "New York Times" reported on November 26, South African scientists recently announced that new variant viruses have exceeded expectations. A few hours later, the Britain issued a ban on passengers from southern Africa countries, other European countries and the United States.

Just completed the global health experts, Olivila told reporters that he believes that the decision of South Africa announced its research discovery will be internationally supported.

The economy of South Africa and Botswana rely on tourists from the United States, Europe and China. Lindiwe Sisulu said that the temporary travel ban is "devastating".
