    In addition, contact tracking will be discontinued – except in cases of so-called cluster outbreaks.

    According to a statement by the ministry, people with a positive Corona test but without symptoms would no longer be obliged to self-isolate.

    There is also no longer the obligation to submit a negative Corona test before resuming work after an isolation period of eight days. All infected people should be able to return to work after eight to ten days without presenting a test.

    The majority of new cases are incidentally in the Western Cape, which is also the most vaccinated province. Overall, South Africa has a low vaccination rate of around 20 percent.
