The seven new fatalities are from the following provinces: 4 from the Eastern Cape, 2 from the Western Cape and one from Limpopo.

Mkhize reminded South Africans that while the country is coming to grips with the coronavirus, it could not afford to forget that government had undertaken to eradicate malaria by 2023, and that many of the government's strategies implemented against the virus were drawn from its anti-malaria policies.

South Africa is currently on Day 30 of its Level 5 lockdown which will come to an end at the end of April. President Cyril Ramaphosa announced on Thursday night that the lockdown would be eased to Level 4 from May 1, which would allow more businesses to return to work. The sale of cigarettes would also be allowed from next Friday.

“We must make sure we do take those precautions, which you must take when you go shopping as well,” she said. “If we do not stick to the public health conditions and the virus starts speeding up, the government will have no option but to move back swiftly to Level 5. If we stick to all the things that need to be done, we can hold on to Level 4 and eventually Level 3,” said the minister.

The Eastern Cape will become the new epicentre. Because it exports all it's people to the money generating provinces, they return home to bury their dead, and the province has no serious government, or law and order.

We complained when police emptied a pot full of meat on the ground in EC. Now, people are dying😢
