Well over six months has passed since South Africa locked down against Covid-19. Our voluntary quarantine in March has taken that closer to seven months, although the last few weeks have been a far cry from the first month. While vastly better off than India, Brazil or the UK or USA, South Africa is still not out of the woods; new infections are continuing to tick along at a little less than 2000 a day, and recoveries are no longer reducing the total number sick. The death toll has taken an ominous little jump upwards; rather than averaging 50 a day or less, it has been around 150 for three days in succession. Still, keeping things down at these levels is no small victory for what many look down on as “a third-world country with first-world pretensions”; and I amongst others put it down to a simple set of clear and consistent hygiene rules, imposed from the outset, repeated by the President in every broadcast speech to the nation, and backed by law. The restrictions on economic and social activity were severe to start with, but have been gradually and cautiously eased, so far without the need for local back-tracking. Even with a growing minority becoming ‘cavalier’ about the rules, and even with three-quarters of the population unable to ever follow the Government health advice to the full, the pandemic has been managed without the “state of national disaster” turning into a humanitarian crisis, or a “second wave” as high as the first. (By comparison, this week the UK’s daily infection rate soared past South Africa’s all-time peak for the second time. The population sizes are closely similar.) It has been quite bad enough for many people. The housekeeper for our apartments comes in just one day a week, but has had to support her family on that one day’s cleaners wages, as her husband has had no work. With another of the tenants here, we have been paying her to come in for an extra day per fortnight; and this week she told us that her husband has now got a job again. It is still too early to tell how well or how soon the tourist industry will revive, or how many more of the hundreds of dependent businesses will go to the wall.

If you’re someone who likes Indian food but dreads cooking it or cooking at all in general, I really really hope you go to the store and get just these 5 things. I promise you won’t regret it! My Blanket Hogger vouches :)
