As South Africans await the President's address tonight regarding the nationwide lockdown, Reuters news agency is reporting on a draft document showing that flexible restrictions on economic activity could be on the cards.
The current lockdown is due to end on April 30th.
According to the document, an "alert system"
comprising five levels would identify which sectors are allowed to operate under different risk scenarios.
The draft presentation, which was put together by the presidency and health ministry, warns of the serious risks associated with lifting lockdown restrictions too soon.
It states that sit-in restaurants, hotels, bars, cinemas, sporting events and religious gatherings could remain prohibited after the lockdown ends.
Ramaphosa's spokesperson, Khusela Diko confirmed the document was authentic, but said it did not represent the government's final plan, as there have been various iterations and consultations since this version.
