BREAKING NEWS: No more mask mandate or venue cap

23 Jun 2022
Comments | 0

Last night (June 22), the South African Minister of Health, Joe Phaahla, issued a gazetted notice repealing three regulations (16A, 16B and 16C).

These relate to mandatory mask wearing inside a public place or on public transport, the capping of venue capacity (venues were capped 50% of full capacity) and entry requirements dictating that any person entering the country must produce proof of vaccination or a negative PCR COVID-19 test not older than 72 hours at the time of departure, respectively.

The previous ongoing 50% cap on venue capacity across South Africa was severely handicapping the MICE industry, where stakeholders had been calling for the regulation to be dropped for some time.
