Health minister Joe Phaahla gazetted a Covid-19 regulations extension late on Wednesday, just before the interim measures were due to expire

Phaahla said the wearing of face masks indoors remained mandatory. Anyone using public transport is also required to wear masks while on board. Rules on international travel and indoor gatherings also remain in force. “Despite the current process to source public comments on the health regulations,” he cautioned, “there is still an imperative to provide options to manage the Covid-19 pandemic and other notifiable medical conditions without invoking the state of national disaster. Covid-19 remains a life-threatening disease, and the country is not yet out of the woods,” he said.

If complying with this indoor gathering requirement is not possible, then attendance will be limited to 1,000 people or 50% of the capacity, whichever is smaller, while the attendance at an outdoor gathering will be limited to 2,000 people or 50% of the capacity, whichever is smaller.
