Relaxed lockdown: Casinos, theatres – and hairdressers – to return, Ramaphosa says

A wide range of businesses and services will be allowed to return to work again soon, President Cyril Ramaphosa announced on Wednesday.

Details are still to follow, but close-contact services such as hairdressers, and business conferences, will all be unbanned, Ramaphosa said.

These were previously considered too dangerous as potential spreading grounds for Sars-CoV-2.

Here is everything President Cyril Ramaphosa said will be allowed again soon, more than 80 days into lockdown:

  • restaurants for sit down meals
  • “accredited and licensed” accommodation – but with the specific exception of “home-sharing accommodation like Airbnb”
  • conferences and meetings “for business purposes”, with limitations on the number of people
  • cinemas and theatres, likewise with limits on the number of people
  • casinos
  • hairdressers, beauty salons, and other personal care services
  • non-contact sports including tennis, golf, and cricket

Contact sports “will be allowed only for training and modified activities with restricted use of facilities”, Ramaphosa said.
