Supporters line the banks of the canal in Vygieskraal on Saturday 18 July in remembrance of the two victims who lost their lives nine days earlier.

T
he Athlone District Advice office has come out in support of the Vygieskraal community after the recent tragedy which occurred on the banks of the canal. Tragedy struck on Thursday 9 July when eight-year-old Abieda Paulse fell into the canal while playing with friends. In an attempt to save her, fellow resident Yusuf Kiriboto also jumped in but both were drawn under by the swells. The banks of the canal had burst as a result of heavy rainfall. JP Smith, the Mayco member for safety and security, confirmed at the time that fire and rescue service divers had responded to the scene to search for the two who were believed to have been swept into one of the many underground pipes and tunnels along the canal. The search was suspended later that day due to adverse weather conditions. The following day, police divers continued the search. Residents, who expressed their concern over the seeming lack of urgency, also joined in the search for the pair.

Pretorius. “(Our aim) was to make people and authorities aware of how this tragedy affected the families and the Vygieskraal community as a whole.” “Not many people turned up. However, various Vygieskraal residents (who were) passing by stopped and joined for a few minutes to pledge their support and (to share) how they felt about the entire situation. Unfortunately, none of the family was present. We went live on Facebook as well,” says Pretorius. When asked to comment on the litter, cleansing and extent of the problem at the canal, the City of Cape Town did not comment. Pretorius says: “The canal, as well as the area surrounding it, is disgusting. It was a tragedy waiting to happen. The City needs to stop making excuses and ignoring the plight of communities such as Vygieskraal.” The Mayco member for transport, Felicity Purchase, says the City does not have any plans for an additional crossing over the canal as there are already two existing safe crossings which serve the Vygieskraal informal settlement.

hile new infections are still reported daily in the Western Cape, recovery numbers are rapidly rising, resulting in an overall drop in Covid-19 infection rate in the province. For example, on Wednesday 22 July the Western Cape reported 86 372 confirmed Covid-19 cases, with 12 135 active cases, 71 491 recoveries and 2 746 deaths. By Thursday 23 July, the Western Cape had a confirmed 87 474 cases, with 11 991 active cases, 72 695 recoveries and 2 788 deaths. There had been 1 102 new infections over this 24-hour period. Over the same period, 1 204 people had recovered and 42 people had succumbed to the virus. This trend has been visible in the province since June with patients recovering faster than new infections reported. According to the provincial health department, this suggests a gentle easing of infections in the Metro. This is in line with predictions that the province would reach its peak at 80 000 confirmed cases. “Though the projection seems to be slowing, we are working on the scenario that there could still be an increase in deaths and admis-

sions. We will continue to monitor this against the modelling for a longer period to be prepared for any eventuality,” reads a statement by the provincial department of health. Premier Alan Winde says: “The provincial government understands that the hard lockdown was an important intervention to slow the spread of the virus and, therefore, to buy the time needed to prepare our health system for the peak of infections that were to come.” In the early days of the Covid-19 pandemic, the province had shown a rapid daily increase in infection numbers and had become known as the epicentre of the virus in South Africa. In recent weeks, this has changed with the Eastern Cape, KwaZulu-Natal and Gauteng now showing a rapid increase in infections. In a recent address, president Cyril Ramaphosa said that the nine provinces across the country were expected to see their infection peaks at different points between July and the end of September. On Thursday 23 July, Ramaphosa acknowledged the successes in the province, but urged residents not to become complacent. “We have also seen a levelling-off of infections in the Western Cape since the third week of June. Although it may be too early to tell, this development provides some hope that the province may have passed the peak of infections. However, we need to remain cautious and vigilant – and continue to follow strict prevention measures – to avoid another rise in infections,” said Ramaphosa. Winde agrees, stating the province will not ease up on its response. “I can reveal that we are starting to see a gentle easing of pressure in the Metro in particular, with a possible decline. This is noticed in the most robust data available to us – hospitalisations
and deaths. But let me be crystal clear, it is simply too early to say the worst is over. We simply do not know enough about the virus to claim so. We are still in the midst of a serious health pandemic. So, if anything, we must be even more vigilant and alert than before so that we can continue to flatten the curve and save lives in the Western Cape,” he says. Ramaphosa also revealed that South Africa ranked fifth in the world for the highest number of Covid-19 infections by Thursday 23 July with 408 052 confirmed cases. As the most recent available statistics at the time of going to print, by Sunday 26 July, South Africa remained fifth with 445 433 infections behind the USA, Brazil, India and Russia. Russia in fourth has more than 370 000 cases more than South Africa. Gauteng has 160 154 confirmed cases, KwaZulu-Natal has 64 061 and the Eastern Cape has 73 585 confirmed cases. Cases in the Western Cape is at 92 079, Northern Cape at 3 600, North West at 17 338 and the Free State has 16 482 cases. Limpopo has 7076 confirmed cases and Mpumalanga has 11 008 cases. The national death toll is 6 769 with 265 077 recoveries. For the Western Cape, there are 12 359 active cases, 75 355 recoveries and 2 862 deaths. The Western Cape has the highest death toll in the country. Residents are reminded of the following tips to ensure protection against Covid-19 and slowing the spread to others. Practise social distancing – at least 2m is currently recommended; isolate when sick; do not remove your masks when talking or exercising; wash or sanitise your hands regularly; avoid touching your mouth, eyes and nose (T-zone); practise cough etiquette (into a tissue or your elbow); and frequently clean all highly-used surfaces at work or at home.

STRIKE
Restaurant industry stands together H
undreds of eateries, coffee shops and takeaways across the country joined in the “Million seats on the streets” protest on Wednesday 22 July to voice the difficulties the restaurant industry is experiencing as a result of Covid-19 restrictions. Tables and chairs were used to block roads outside various restaurants between 12:00 and 14:00 as part of the peaceful protest. The Restaurant Association of South Africa (Rasa) spearheaded the protest. Wendy Alberts, the CEO of Rasa, says its aim was to create unity in the industry and to get the voices of their members heard. In a WhatsApp sent to members on Sunday 19 July, Alberts urged members to stay safe and to operate within the confines of the law. “As much as we want to get our voices heard, we need to do it with respect and dignity. We want to tell president Cyril Ramaphosa of our hardships and how diversified and colourful our industry is and the broader impact on the country and that we need to save our restaurants,” the message read. On Tuesday, Alberts informed Rasa members that the minister of tourism, Nkhensani Kubayi-Ngubane, had agreed to meet with Rasa on Wednesday. Acclaimed business mogul and global speaker Vusi Thembekwayo was set to address the minister followed by the handover of a memorandum from Rasa, The Taverners Association and The Independent Liquor Association. “Thank you to all you lovely restaurants for all your assistance and support, and please tell your staff we are doing everything to #jobssavelives. We hope these are the first steps to reopening the industry,” Alberts says. She encouraged restaurants to keep the momentum going. “A million tweets for a million seats on the streets. Let’s take over the Twitter streets as well. Tweet your black and white photos to KNDZ and to CR to show our hardship.”
Serve us, please! KAYLYNNE BANTOM A group of about 200 people in the hospitality sector held a peaceful protest outside the Parliament precinct on Friday 24 July. The group are members of the #ServeUsPlease movement. They are protesting the millions of Rands lost, as well as the major job losses in the sector, as a re-
sult of the national lockdown. But the protest soon turned violent when police fired stun grenades and water cannons to disperse the crowd. According to the police, the gathering was illegal under level three of Covid-19 regulations. But Brent Perremore #ServeUsPlease movement spokesperson says it is regrettable that police reacted in this way as the pro-
testors adhered to all safety measures including the wearing of masks and social distancing. “The movement reaffirms its commitment to supporting the initiatives of government in combatting the spread of the pandemic, however the police’s use of unnecessary force in dispersing peaceful protestors highlights government’s insistence to ignore the desperate plight of the hospitality, tourism, alcohol, restaurant, and associated industries,” said Perremore.

only two orders – amounting to seven meals. On any given Tuesday before the lockdown, she says, the restaurant would record up to 60 orders; and 100 to 120 on a Sunday. Joseph Mburu, the manager at Fisherman’s on Kommetjie, says they are experiencing a similar trend. On any Sunday be-
“We can’t fill our restaurants and we are battling.” Toni Murray, the general manager at the Kommetjie restaurant Espresso.Kom, shares with People’s Post. The staff from several restaurants lined the sidewalks with tables and chairs as part of the Million Seats on the Streets restaurant industry protest last week Wednesday 22 July. Katherine Cooper, the manager at Lighthouse Pub and Grill, says the eatery sustains 14 jobs which feeds 54 mouths. But now, she explains: “Business is basically non-existent. We are just doing a few takeaways – it’s not making ends meet because we’re more a pub than a restaurant so we need the alcohol to make the money. Food is normally only about 30% of our turnover.” Last Tuesday 21 July, they received Katherine Cooper takes a stand for restaurant staff.
fore lockdown, they would fill the restaurant with about 400 people, but since then have not seen more than 40 people on a Sunday. As a result, the staff have suffered. “All together we were about 31 staff and now we’ve had to retrench a lot, so at the moment we just have skeleton staff who are mainly casual – there are over 20 employees not working. There’s basically no income; there’s not enough to survive,” says Mburu. Murray, who employs 17 people and feeds more than 40 mouths, says this protest is necessary. “We’re making our voices heard to say we want to open up – but we can’t bring back all our staff and we can’t sell alcohol which is a lot of our income.” Cooper adds that support is needed from the government in this industry. “We know that we can’t open as usual but so many restaurants are closing down, so many can’t make it, that something needs to be done – some help needs to be given.”

COVID-19 REGULATIONS
Schools to reopen next month SAMANTHA LEE-JACOBS @Samantha_Lee121
T
he decision to close schools has been met with mixed emotions as some parents have welcomed the decision while others remain apprehensive about the proposed breaks. Since Monday 8 June, learners have returned to school in a phased-in approach. However, in his address to the nation on Thursday 23 July, president Cyril Ramaphosa announced schools will be closed for the next four weeks, with exceptions for Grades 7 and 12 learners. “It is necessary to report that it was difficult to find consensus on the best approach, just as there are differing views among both international and local experts on the circumstances under which schools should be reopened,” said Ramaphosa. “What everyone does agree on, however, is that the health, academic and social development of learners must remain our foremost concerns.” This decision affects all public schools with schools being closed from Monday 27 July and reopening on Monday 24 August. Grade 12 learners and teachers will only take a one-week break, returning to school on Monday 3 August with Grade 7 learners returning on Monday 10 August. The decision follows extensive consultations between the department of basic education and several entities. Ramaphosa said the decision to reopen schools was initially taken under guidelines
from the World Health Organisation (WHO), which argues for a balanced consideration of the educational needs of the child and trends in the development of the disease. This advice applies to cases where community transmission is low, however with the suspected peak of infections approaching and the recent spike in infections, the decision was made to close schools so they do not become a hotspot for infections. “We have taken a deliberately cautious approach to keep schools closed during a period when the country is expected to experience its greatest increase in infections,” he said. From the initial announcement that schools would be reopened, parents shared with People’s Post that they would not be sending their children to schools (“Schools to reopen on 1 June”, People’s Post, 5 May). This was especially true for parents of younger children. At the time, mom of three young children Juanita Loubser said she knew social distancing would be a struggle for them if they returned to school without her supervision. “They miss their friends, they are going to want to hug and play and catch up. It won’t be long before someone takes off or fiddles with the mask. The next thing the teachers are forced to resort to punitive measures to keep the kids safe,” says Loubser. Many echoed her concerns. Ahead of the address, several social media users were calling for the closure of schools in the live chat and comment function on the link to the livestream of the address on both Facebook and Youtube.
But for some, they had no choice but to send their children to school. People’s Post polled readers on social media following the announcement. Lee-Ann Samuels and Jolene Smith both say they cannot make alternate arrangements for their children. Samuels says: “In the beginning, we were still home to look after children if they had not gone to school. I am back at work now and cannot afford to stay home to watch children. We are told not to visit family as it is a risk, so what do I do with my children now?” She adds that there has been a lot of judgement from parents and non-parents on their decision to send their daughter to school. “I don’t think it is fair for so many to place their opinions and judgement on my decision as a parent. Especially those who do not have children. I sent my child to school. I do not pass comments on your decision to keep children home,” she says. Smith says as they have a rotation of short time between her partner and herself, four weekdays can be covered, with one day of concern. “We will have to break lockdown regulations and have someone come here or take our son and daughter there, but with the pandemic, where can you go? At school we had peace of mind that children were being monitored,” says Smith. Around the world, return to schools has become a contentious issue with several social media support groups established for people to express their views. Unicef, in a release on Wednesday 3 June, acknowledged the anxiety parents may be feeling in light of the global pandemic, but further stated the importance of reopening schools. Globally, 1 billion learners had returned
to school between June and July, they say. According to the organisation, South Africa’s staggered approach was in the best interest of children and teachers. Provincial minister for education, Debbie Schäfer has also publically slammed the decision to reclose schools stating no scientific evidence supported this decision and that schools have not become hotspots for transmission of the virus. But according to a recent survey among teachers, staff and unions, teachers have been calling for schools to remain closed in light of the pandemic and its vast effects. The country’s largest teacher’s unions, including South African Democratic Teacher Union (Sadtu), the National Professional Teachers’ Organisation of SA (Naptosa) and the Education Union of South Africa (Eusa) have come out in full support of the reclosure of schools. The survey conducted by online learning platform Zibuza.net found that teachers are struggling to adjust to the demands of online and remote teaching, but that the health dangers of face-to-face teaching take precedence over all other concerns. Malcolm Mooi, founder of Zibuza.net, says the responders are calling for online learning, government providing learners with smartphones with data bundles, providing teachers with data and bulk SMS bundles and have pre-recorded lessons shared via social media, among others solutions. Mooi says another point is that educators should be willing to reskill themselves within the remote teaching space. “If all stakeholders in the sector make sure that even the poorest schools in the country are technologically resourced, we will be able to mitigate the negative impact of major disruptions to face-to-face learning in the future,” says Mooi.

Isaacs is ploughing back AVRIL FILLIES POST@PEOPLESPOST.CO.ZA
W
inning three trophies in one season (2018/’19) with the u.18 team of the amateur soccer club, Hout Bay Community United, and seeing the smiles on the faces of the players and the greater community was the cherry on Dominic Isaacs’s coaching career. The current coach of Cape Umoya in the GladAfrica Championship (national first division), Isaacs started his professional career as a soccer player at Ajax Cape Town in Parow. He also had stints in the PSL at Kaizer Chiefs and Bloemfontein Celtic. “When we won the three trophies, I showed the players that no matter where you come from, with hard work, commitment, resilience and perseverance, anything is possible,” he says. “If I look back on my soccer career I have no regrets as I believe everything happens for a reason. I am thankful for my health, without it I would not have been able to achieve what I did for so long. “Soccer has also allowed me to travel and
to experience different cultures and ways of life and I was able to visit six of the seven continents,” he says. Isaacs started his soccer career at Parkhurst Ambassadors in Mitchell’s Plain, where he still currently resides, and was a member of the club for 11 years. At the age of 17 he started playing for Ajax and turned professional. “I was at Ajax for (a total of) 10 years (2000 - 2008 and 2013 - 2015), Kaizer Chiefs for four (2008 - 2012), and a year at Bloemfontein Celtic (2012 - 2013). I finished my playing career at Ajax in 2015. After I hung up my boots I focused on coaching and that is how I landed in Hout Bay.” Back in his playing days, he says, there were many players who had an influence in the way he built his career, “but I prefer not to mention names, as there are too many,” he adds. These influences encouraged him to play his best, thus affording him great opportunities. “I was privileged enough to represent my country as an u.17 (14 caps), u.20 (16 caps) and u.23 (9 caps) player. Other clubs, besides Parkhurst, that I played for in my youth career were Sea Point Swifts in Bonteheuwel and School of Excellence in Johannesburg,” Isaacs says.
“At Ajax, I was part of the squad in 2001 that played in the Groningen Tournament in the Netherlands. “It was great to be able to test our skills against teams from across the world. I was also fortunate enough to have played across Africa from a very young age at the Al Ahly soccer club in Egypt and the Mohammed Barakat club,” he adds. Isaacs believes it is very important for former players to plough back into their communities, but with limited facilities available in communities, he knows it can be challenging. “I learned many different things from each of the coaches at the different PSL clubs, some learnings I will always carry with me. To relax I listen to music, learn and research history and surround myself with people I can learn from. “You know, we also had fun while playing. I can recall in 2002 at Ajax after every home win, we (David Kannemeyer, Muneeb Josephs, Shaun Oliver, Maya Jansen, Shaun Permall and I) would empty the dustbins and make it a gummy (drum) and sing Klopse songs for up to two hours in the cloak room until the kitmaster, Albert Hendricks, would shout at us to get done. Really special times,” he reminisces.
