Churches and liquor stores on the spotlight amid Covid 19 restrictions

As churches scale down services due to the corona virus, some are taking advantage of technology to reach their members. Government has issued guidelines prohibiting public gatherings of more than 100 people at a time. Tshepo Phagane visited Soweto to check how churches are dealing with the new regulations, what measures they've put in place to deal with the virus, and how they ensure they keep worshiping with the cancellation of some services. Vice-president of the National Funeral Directors' Association, Lawrence Konyana says they are treating each body as a potential case of COVID19. Konyana says they are also trying to discourage families from coming into the funeral parlous to wash the body of the deceased person as is common practice in most traditions and cultures.
