When a trip to the store is daunting, support these online local businesses
Over the course of the past few days, the world has watched in relative horror as England has relaxed many of the Covid-19 enforced restrictions. Masks are no longer compulsory and large group events, including nightclub openings, are well underway.
In South Africa, level 4 is still firmly in place, and for the most part, people continue to search for viable ways to avoid any human contact, for fear of infection. Along with level 4, the country has seen rampant looting and violent taxi strikes, which makes leaving the house even less appealing.
