This follows a statement by President Cyril Ramaphosa which lifts the curfew, among other things.
Changes to the Adjusted Alert Level 1 Covid-19 regulations were approved at a special Cabinet meeting on Thursday.
Cabinet made the decision to further ease the regulations following a sustained decrease in infections, hospitalisation and Covid-19 related deaths following the Delta variant, and an increase in vaccinations.
The following amendment are now applicable under Adjusted Alert Level 1:
“We thank all South African who have continued to support government efforts to contain the pandemic. We urge them to continue to do so until the pandemic is completely under control,” said the department in the statement.
It urged those who are not yet vaccinated from the age of 12 years to so urgently in an effort to mitigate the challenges brought by Covid-19.
