The president announced that government was likely to ease the lockdown restrictions to Level 3 at the end of May.
President Cyril Ramaphosa has conceded that some action government has taken in its effort to curb the spread of the coronavirus has been unclear, contradictory and poorly explained.
“And that is why we must acknowledge that as we have confronted this unprecedented challenge, there may have been times when we have fallen short of your expectations. He said government implementation had sometimes been slow and enforcement had sometimes been inconsistent and too harsh. “Where we have disappointed, we will continue to make amends. Where we make mistakes… as I said we are traversing uncharted territory. None of us have ever been through what we are going through now in the history of this country. We will make mistakes but I can assure you we will always seek to correct those mistakes,” he said.The president announced that government was likely to ease the lockdown restrictions to Level 3 at the end of May – bar some areas with high infection rates.
