By Phumzile Mavimbela

President Cyril Ramaphosa has moved  South Africa to adjusted level 2 lockdown from Monday.  This means that the national curfew will start at 11 pm and end at 4 am.

All gatherings will be limited to a maximum of 250 people indoors, as well as 500 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. 

Ramaphosa said that the sale of alcohol from retail outlets for off-site consumption will be permitted between 10am and 6pm from Monday to Friday. Alcohol sales for on-site consumption will be permitted as per licence conditions up to 10pm. Alcohol consumption remains prohibited in public spaces. 
 
It remains mandatory for every person to wear a face mask that always covers their nose and mouth when in public spaces.
