President Cyril Ramaphosa’s announcement that the country would remain at lockdown level 1 after a recent increase in Covid-19 cases across the country has been met with positive responses.

Andrew Stark, MD Flight Centre Travel Group RSA, said Ramaphosa has taken a great position to open up international travel as soon as possible and to ask those nations that made knee-jerk reactions to the new Covid-19 variant to revert quickly.

“It’s something we’ve been saying over the past year: we all have to learn to live with this virus. The president made a very good point about the fact that it seems we have a surplus of vaccines. We need to get as many South Africans vaccinated as quickly as possible. It’s doable. The target was 65% of the adult population. It probably has to be a target of 80%+,” he said.

Anderson said Fedhasa is agrees with Ramaphosa that we have to learn to live with Covid-19 and not let it ruin the economy, lives and livelihoods. “SA is not the source of this new variant. We were quick and clear to identify it and share it with the world. Do not punish us for our successes,” said De Vries.

The SA Liquor Brand owners Association said it shares the view that travel restrictions imposed by other countries on Southern Africa are unjustified.

IN FULL: Vaccination drive just got real, says President Cyril RamaphosaWe have been undertaking engagements with social partners and other stakeholders on introducing measures that make vaccination a condition for access to workplaces, public events, public transport and public establishments. Let's see how this works for businesses 🙃 it will definitely work for employers because employees need to keep their jobs but businesses! Alright Social partners & other stakeholders are not who you work for. Govt of the people, by the people & for the people, not stakeholders. In others words you've been meeting in secret with those who want to remain unamed, as to what tyranny & manipulation you'll subject us to next. This is nonsense and Ramaphosa government must be stopped right now otherwise we will continue under the Westen rule.
