In a media briefing on Thursday , DA leader John Steenhuisen said his party also plans to mount a legal challenge against the regulations government plans to introduce to permanently replace the state of disaster.The lockdown is not in South Africa’s best interest but is instead pushing more people into joblessness and deeper into poverty, Steenhuisen said.
“The only state of disaster that the country is in, is the self-imposed one caused by ongoing restrictions which do more harm than good.” The government’s ability to quickly reinstate a state of disaster means there is also no need to move lockdown restrictions into permanent legislation, he said. He further cautioned that maintaining some lockdown restrictions – including limitations on gatherings, travel requirements and vaccinations – will further stunt the economy at a time when other countries are lifting all of their restrictions.
I am afraid we still have to many useless sheep here to make any impact to stop this madness, Goverment will stop the SOD as soon as the new heath amendment act is approved... then we are fucked with this shit forever... aka. The new normal.
