The IFP said they believed the move to lockdown alert level 3 was premature and therefore required special attention to detail and careful consideration if the government was to continue saving lives.
"Alcohol may be sold for home consumption only under strict conditions, on specified days and for limited hours. Announcements in this regard will be made once we have concluded discussions with the sector on the various conditions," said Ramaphosa, adding that the ban on church gatherings stood. The president said even though the entire country would be on alert level 3, it was important that South Africans be aware that there were parts of the country where the disease was concentrated, with infections continuing to rise.
He said some of the hotspots were metros such as Tshwane, Johannesburg, Ekurhuleni, eThekwini, Nelson Mandela Bay, Buffalo City and Cape Town. The president said the government had known all along that the lockdown's intention was to delay the spread of the virus and that it would not be able to stop it. He said the lockdown can't be sustained indefinitely.
