The premier says the provincial government will only consider moving the province to Level 3 of the lockdown once it is satisfied that Covid-19 lockdown regulations are complied with.

On Thursday, Makhura said considering that Gauteng was an “integrated” region, it would be difficult to place different parts of the province at different levels of the lockdown.

Makhura said placing different parts of the province on different levels of the lockdown could risk making Gauteng the epicentre of Covid-19 considering that people in the province live and work in various parts of it and move around constantly. The premier said Covid-19 hotspots in the province were shifting and that the provincial government wanted to get to these areas “early” and would direct food parcels in these areas as well as screening and testing facilities.

Makhura said getting to Level 3 would not occur magically as compliance with Covid-19 preventative measures was necessary.
