Yes, why not let's put it back on Level 5 for the next 6 Months. There is still too many people with jobs.
 
Nah. The WC is actually proving the silliness of the lockdown levels with new cases being stable for a couple of weeks now. No surge of cases.

Reducing the hours or even banning booze again won't help. After being caught off guard the first time people have stocked up and that includes taverns and shebeens.

Schools - they've already reduced the number of grades returning on Monday.

Churches/Mosques/Synagogues/etc - close them. God is supposedly everywhere anyway. Everything that creates revenue and employment needs to stay open. People need to work because people need to eat. The government couldn't even organise a R350pm payment.

Tl;Dr - you had nearly 100 days that the entire nation paid for - you should have done more with it.

Yes in 100 days government should have either invented a vaccine, or rounded up all covid19 positive persons and burned them alive.

/Sarcasm off

So what should government have really done in 100 days?
 
More condoms need to be distributed, imagine in the next six to nine month's how many lockdown kids are going to be born?

So in truth its the townships that need stricter rules, not the rest of Gauteng.

This must be the only valid explanation for Gauteng.

I've been driving around a lot for things and almost everywhere I go there's masks and sanitizer. And people are adhering to it. Its impossible for them to be contributing to the super-high numbers in Gauteng.

The only other logical conclusion is that there's other densely populated areas without proper social distancing, mask-wearing and sanitizing thats driving our numbers up.
 
Pointless for stricter rules when you can't even get the population to obey the simple rules.

Rules and obey seems ludicrous to me.

The wearing of masks and social distancing is simple and protects people. If people are so broken that they don't care if this virus gets to their vulnerable at risk family members, then we're far more ****ed than a simple case of corona.
