Water disruptions have struck at Estcourt Hospital, resulting in strict water restrictions in certain wards.
This is yet to be confirmed by Health Department provincial spokesperson Mdu Ncalane who has been asked about the severity of the water disruptions and which services it has affected.
uThukela District Municipality has also not responded yet to questions, which included the cause of the prolonged water interruption and when stable water supply was expected.
