The Covid-19 regulations which were in place in schools, initiation schools, old age homes and on public transport fall away as of Tuesday.
This and other measures come into place after President Cyril Ramaphosa's announcement on Monday that the country's national state of disaster had ended.
After listing the regulations which do remain in place, at least for the next 30 days, including mask wearing, limitations on numbers of people permitted to gather and the R350 social relief grant, Ramaphosa said: “All other disaster regulations will fall away at midnight tonight.” These include “regulations on isolation of people, on schools and access to old age homes, on public transport, on initiation practices, on cargo transportation, and on criminalisation of non-adherence to these rules,” Ramaphosa said.
Rules enforced on public transport since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic included keeping the windows open to ensure sufficient ventilation in the vehicle and to reduce the chances of getting the virus.
