President Cyril Ramaphosa announced on 28th Feb at 8pm that the Lockdown will be eased to Level One.
The new alert level is in effect from 01 March 2021 according to the current gazette.
What this means:
- The hours of the curfew will now be from 12 midnight to 4am.
- Gatherings will be permitted, subject to limitations on size, adherence to social distancing and other health protocols.
- These include religious, social, political and cultural gatherings.
- The maximum number of people allowed at any gathering is 100 people indoors or 250 people outdoors.
- Where the venue is too small to accommodate these numbers with appropriate social distancing, then no more than 50 percent of the capacity of the venue may be used.
- Night vigils or other gatherings before or after funerals are still not permitted.
