In the face of a deteriorating economic situation, South Africa’s President Cyril Ramaphosa has opted to ease lockdown restrictions further even though coronavirus cases are beginning to rise rapidly.
In the past week alone, the number has increased by 37%.
But in a frank address to the nation, the president highlighted the need to preserve peoples’ livelihoods.
As a result, he said that parts of the leisure industry will reopen soon.
At the end of March, the country entered into one of the strictest lockdown regimes in the world, almost all movement outside was restricted and the sale of cigarettes and alcohol was banned.
