With South Africa entering lockdown level 3, places of worships will be allowed to reopen their doors to worshipers as of June 1st. Restaurants and other eateries must remain closed. The Restaurant Association of South Africa is demanding an explanation from the government on the reasoning for this decision. Restaurant owners claim they can not sustain their business on deliveries and pick-ups alone.
