Working South Africans need to spend more time in bed to increase their chances of living longer, a new study of sleeping habits has found. By skimping on the recommended seven to nine hours' sleep a night, people are potentially shaving years off their life due to chronic illness and disability associated with sleep deprivation, according to the study based on a sample of 658 staff of a local financial services company.
Health Minister Dr Zweli Mkhize says universal health coverage is essential and the National Health Insurance (NHI) will happen.
Participating in a debate on the State of the Nation Address on Tuesday, he said the NHI Bill will soon be sent to parliament and that the days of debating whether it will be implemented or not are over.

The Basic course will provide you with all the necessary training to enable you to complete simple implant cases. This means cases where the bone has healed and which are not in the aesthetic zone. The course is geared to ensure that you have all the necessary information, so that you walk away with the confidence to place your first implant or improve your current knowledge by ensuring that you are aware of all the most current and up to date treatment strategies.
The lecture topics for this course are as follows:
All modules involve hands on training that are done on animal models. The model that is used for this module is a pig jaw and each participant has to raise a flap, create an implant osteotomy and then place an implant. After this they have to modify the soft tissue to simulate an exposure and suture the soft tissue around an abutment. They are also shown impression techniques.
