COVID-19 alert level 1 was implemented last night following an address by President Cyril Ramaphosa.

What is not allowed

No person may be evicted from their land.

Such a broad term.....

So no EWC then for the duration of the SoD?

What is not allowed

No spectators are allowed at the venue of the sports match. No international sports events involving countries with a high COVID-19 infection risk are allowed.

So no Lions tour as things stand?

A Covid test certificate is required? What kind of test and from who? Is a doctor's visit and letter to the local path lab required? Will they provide the certificate?
So that covers SA side restrictions. Is there a list of countries we are still not allowed to travel to? US? UK?

You go to a lancet or ampath and get tested and they give you the results. This has been the case for international travel since the beginning.

Without a referral? Can I just phone them to make an appointment?
Anyone know of medical aid will pay?

Yip

Medical aid doesn't pay for travel tests.

Ok so no travel from SA to USA just yet. https://za.usembassy.gov/new-covid-19-travel-restrictions-for-the-united-states/

Does this mean that home affairs will start offering their full range of services again? Can we apply for passports again?

Phew, seems there are no regulations which will interrupt the continued looting by the ANC.

So not much difference in the lockdown level from 3 - 1. as per usual much of the same bulls———t

But between the time of the test and then in transit one can easily pick up the virus

Indeed not

 

[adrianx]

The consumption of liquor in public places, except in licensed premises, is not permitted.

Hasn't this always been the case?

Same thought that was a normal thing, but apparently it needs repeating.

 

[murray654]

Updated the list of rules to ignore

Yes, and in regards to my trip, Covid test is for allowing entry/flight, you still need quarantine, you need a negative test ~5 days after arrival to be allowed out early, else it's a 10 day quarantine, so going to be stuck at home for 10 days as no way paying an extra 100 EUR for another test (and those tests are not fun, plus that will be "release" on 6th/7th day once Covid test comes back negative).
