Contradicting Covid-19 Regulations in South Africa.

from African Dialogue · host Channel Africa

INTRO: South African President Cyril Ramaphosa has called out South Africans for their reckless behaviour during the covid-19 lockdown period. The president began by acknowledging that the storm of the coronavirus peak had arrived but had strong words against reckless behaviour, saying "we are not helpless in the face of this storm". In an unfamiliar tone, Ramaphosa delivered a sharp reprimand to South Africans who refuse to abide by Covid-19 regulations during his address to the nation on Sunday evening. He banned the sale of alcohol and further imposed a curfew, a move which some in the industries criticize. Meanwhile as South Africa registers over 200 000 cases of positive coronavirus cases the taxi industry has been allowed to carry 100% capacity for long distance travel. To help us unpack all these contradictions we are joined by• Prof Sam Mokgokong Specialist Neurosurgeon & Intensive Care Unit Specialist • Kurt MooreCEOSouth African Liquor Brand Owners Association • Thabiso MolelekwaSpokesperson SANTACO
