Deputy Minister in the Presidency Thembi Siweya has warned the public against hosting uncontrolled house parties while the country is still under level 2 of the lockdown.

Pretoria -

Expressing her concern, Siwela said parties were becoming a norm during level 2 of the lockdown. She said those parties were likely to expose more people to the virus.“Since the government announced the restricted times for people to buy alcohol, many in society are taking advantage to organise house parties. This will only worsen the situation and allow for the virus to spread.

She added that the government wanted to urge all South Africans to continue to work with the government to address the changes that manifest as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, saying they must continue to adhere to regulations.
