SA will no longer receive Covid-19 daily updates.
The health department announced the end of Covid-19 daily reporting on Sunday, which has been in place since 2020 by the National Institute for Communicable Diseases .
Health department spokesperson Foster Mohale said due to the reduced severity and transmissibility of the disease, coupled with declining Covid-19 case numbers, “the department together with the NICD have reassessed the existing reporting structures, and agreed that it is justifiable to allow the majority of members of the reporting structures to return to their permanent jobs on a full-time basis.
“This means the department will, with effect from August 1 , publish the Covid-19 surveillance data on a weekly basis, but continue to closely monitor the situation.”
