South African President Cyril Ramaphosa has declared a nationwide state of catastrophe because of the ongoing coronavirus outbreak. Up to now, 61 Covid-19 circumstances have been confirmed within the nation.
The president warned that the epidemic might need a major and “doubtlessly lasting” impact on the nation’s financial system, which is already in recession. Earlier this week, the World Well being Group categorised the coronavirus outbreak as a pandemic. Over 160,000 individuals have contracted the illness worldwide, whereas greater than 6,400 died.
