President Cyril Ramaphosa has expressed concern at the low number of youths who have taken the Covid-19 vaccine.
Addressing the nation on Tuesday, Ramaphosa said only about a third of the nation's youths were vaccinated.
“It is vitally important that we get many more of our people between 18 and 35 vaccinated, and that is why we launched the #KeReady campaign last month,” he added. On Tuesday, Ramaphosa announced that masks were no longer mandatory outside and venues would be permitted to take 50% capacity, provided that those attending could produce Covid-19 vaccine certificates or recent negative Covid-19 tests.“Our most important defences against the disease are, first, vaccination and, second, the observance of basic measures, such as wearing masks indoors.
