lockdown regulations to allow people to travel outside their home province to attend funerals and to free up the movement of food, medicine and other essential goods from South Africa’s harbours to the rest of the country.
At the same time that ministers were announcing the changing regulations, health minister Zweli Mkhize announced that the number of positive tests had grown to 1 462. The department of health would establish a Covid-19 tracing database, using cellular technology, to track people suspected of having come into contact with the virus, to further prevent its spread and assist in the testing and treatment process.
Amendments to the restrictions on ports and harbours will allow for people with life threatening medical conditions to exit or enter South Africa for treatment, while foreign nationals wanting to return to their countries of origin could now do so, provided that their embassy was involved in the evacuation and repatriation process.
Lamola said the tracking of cellphones to help find people who had been exposed to the virus would not end in people being spied on using their phones.
Everything that must be done must be based on thought process not amandla, supported by logical reasoning and science but also taking into account our people way of living. The colonialism created migrants working situations. Our response must cater for these (not same as Euro)
Is it really necessary for people to travel across provinces? I still feel the provincial boundaries should have been shut before the lockdown was announced to control the spread 🤷🏽♂️

SA health authority reviewing stance on masks to stem Covid-19 infectionsThe National Institute for Communicable Diseases is reviewing its stance on discouraging members of the public from using masks to reduce the spread of Covid-19. mask is too protect from people who cough or sneeze so us here we have no people that cough or sneeze so dont need it There's nothing to revise. We were caught with our pants down because we had outsourced basic medical supplies to China just like every other pathetic country that bought into globalism. Now it's oh no forget the masks because WHO overnight science? We aren't so easily fooled. Funny how this shows up right after it's been suggested the treatment must be tested in Africa where there are guess what? NO MASKS! The transparency of this nonsense would be comical if it weren't so genocidal.
