Nkosazana Dlamini Zuma部长关于发布COVID-19警报第2级法规的讲话
同事;媒体成员；同胞。
感谢您抽出宝贵的时间来详细阐述总统在周末的讲话。确实如总统所说；“这是五个月的巨大困难，大流行给我们的人民，家庭和社区的健康，公共卫生系统，经济和人们的日常生活造成了沉重的损失。”同时我们已在宪报上刊登相关规例。
大流行病呼吁我们所有人作出个人和集体的牺牲。只有通过团结一致的行动和追求共同的目标，我们才能克服这一流行病。因此我们可能不得不作出更多的牺牲，为共同的利益一起行动。
您还应该记得，COVID-19也是在我们的经济面临行人增长，高失业，猖ramp的贫困，高度不平等和饥饿的严峻挑战的时候到来的。我国绝大多数公民仍然没有诸如水，卫生，道路和适当住房之类的基本服务。
我们的卫生和教育系统也没有足够的能力来应对COVID-19提出的挑战。因此，我们必须做出能够充分应对大流行病带来的健康，社会和经济挑战的对策。考虑到我们的现实，我们于4月21日通过了风险调整策略。尽管感染人数在增加，但随着我们走上了挽救生命和生计的紧绳，这使我们逐渐开放了经济。
令人遗憾的是，已有1万1千多人死于该病毒。我们借此机会向他们的家人，朋友，同事和社区成员表示慰问。我们还向那些因病毒而丧生的医护人员和一线工人致敬，他们的灵魂若安息于永恒。
女士们，先生们，在6月和7月的感染迅速增加之后，感染的每日增加似乎正在稳定。明显减少，特别是在西开普省，豪登省和东开普省等较大的省份。但是，KZN仍然存在一些挑战。在全国病例恢复率超过80％的基础上，病死率也提高到1.6％左右。
这表明南非人已采取的预防措施正在发挥作用。卫生部长证实了这一点，他告诉我们，医院现在有足够的容量，包括床位，ICU空间和呼吸机。因此，我们呼吁暂时中止实地医院的建设，并将把资金重新用于维护和修理现有的卫生设施。
随着我们继续与COVID-19病毒的影响作斗争，我们旨在限制困难，并且没有希望将严格的禁令保留到必要的时间。
出于这个原因，我们取消了对一些地区的限制，但在晚上10点至凌晨4点之间保持了宵禁。现在允许跨省旅行。现在允许销售烟草和烟草制品。尽管有限制，但允许在非经销店和零售店销售酒精，但仅限于星期一至星期四的上午9点至下午5点之间进行。每天早上6点至22点，酒水也可以由持牌营业场所提供，例如餐馆，酒吧和小酒馆。只要遵守健康和卫生规程，这些场所最多只能有50位顾客来经营。其中包括顾客之间1.5米的距离，表面消毒，洗手和戴口罩。
我们还开设了体育馆和健身中心，并允许他们最多与50个人进行业务，并且遵守严格的健康和卫生规程。根据COVID-19预防方案和要发布的指示，也已取消了对海滩的限制。还恢复了水上活动和某些类别的旅游活动，包括赏鲸，潜水，鲨鱼笼潜水，皮划艇，漂流和乘快艇。
某些环境部门的活动已经开放，包括动物园，水族馆，动物保护区和康复中心，但要遵守严格的健康和卫生规程，包括消毒，戴口罩和保持社会距离。为了进一步减轻风险，卫生部正在与有关部门和部门合作制定指南。
住宿和娱乐场所，如住宿场所，旅行社和赌场等，可按楼面容量的50％运营。如今，剧院和电影院最多可容纳50人，但要遵守健康和卫生规程，例如戴口罩，社交疏远，消毒和洗手。
现在允许在居住地进行社交活动。只要不超过十名访客，就包括拜访朋友和家人，并且遵守戴口罩，消毒，洗手和安全的社交距离的健康规程。
现在只允许举行不超过50人的社交聚会，例如葬礼和婚礼。我们将继续禁止夜间守夜。
我们希望，在进行这些活动时，我们将保持严格的社交距离，戴口罩，消毒和洗手的规程。因此，我们必须比以往更加谨慎和警惕。决定我们未来的是我们现在的行动。，当我们进一步开放经济时，风险就会增加，并可能导致复苏和第二波浪潮。
我们在其中长途跋涉。因此，我们必须保持警惕而不是疲倦。正如前总统姆贝基曾经说过的那样：“完成课程的人之所以这样做，是因为他们不会因为疲倦而自欺欺人，使自己确信前进的道路仍然太长，坡度太陡，无法忍受孤独，奖励本身具有可疑的价值。”
因此，我们必须彼此保护，因为我们只有在所有人都安全之后才能安全。在进行社交访问时，请保持口罩，洗手并保持安全的社交距离。
Mase niphuzile buyelani emakhaya，但不要落后。让我们负责任地喝酒，保护我们所有人，尤其是妇女和儿童。不要虐待妇女和儿童，不要打架。
我们不想回到更高的限制水平，因此我们都必须负责任地采取行动。当我们抽烟时，当病毒与人一起传播时，我们不要分享香烟，它没有腿。
鉴于与国际旅行相关的高风险，我们将继续采取此类限制措施。看到年轻人如何将这种病毒从夜总会带给老人后，我们将继续关闭它们。为了限制风险，我们还在体育赛事中实施了对观众的限制。不允许任何观众。也不允许休闲游轮。
我们还提到了这样一个事实，即我们所有的努力都是在挽救生命和生计的微妙平衡上进行的。为此，我们说该战略是一个动态的路线图，它将努力保持相关性并推动我们为保护人民和确保其生计而进行的斗争。
我们要感谢所有南非人，个人，传统领袖，非政府组织工人，妇女组织，青年组织在我们打击COVID-19方面的支持和贡献。
即使我们放宽了限制，风险还是增加了，因为人们在传播病毒。我们必须保持警惕，共同击败病毒，因为我们必须继续前进并共同努力。确实，这一切都掌握在我们手中。
谢谢。
Zuma讲话原文：
Colleagues;
Members of the media;
Compatriots.
Thank you for taking the time for us to elaborate on the announcements of the president over the weekend. We have Gazetted the associated regulations. Indeed, as the president said; “It has been an immensely difficult five months, and the pandemic has taken a heavy toll – on the health of our people, on families and communities, on the public health system, on the economy and on people’s everyday lives.”
The pandemic has called on all of us to make individual and collective sacrifices. It is only through united action and the pursuance of a common goal that we can overcome the pandemic. Consequently, we may be called upon to make further sacrifices and act jointly towards a common good.
You will also recall that COVID-19 also arrived at a time when our economy was greatly challenged with pedestrian growth, high unemployment, rampant poverty, high inequality and hunger. The vast majority of our citizens continue to be without basic services such as water, sanitation, roads and adequate housing.
Our health and education systems were also not adequately equipped to deal with the challenges presented by COVID-19. Consequently, we had to mount a response that could adequately respond to the health, social and economic challenges presented by the pandemic. In recognition of our realities, we adopted the Risk-Adjusted Strategy on 21 April. This allowed us to gradually open up the economy, despite the increasing infection numbers, as we walked the tight rope of saving lives and livelihoods.
Regrettably, over 11 thousand have lost their lives to the virus. We take the opportunity to reextend our condolences to their families, friends, colleagues and community members. We also salute the healthcare and frontline workers who have also lost their lives to the virus, may their souls rest in eternal peace.
Ladies and gentlemen, after a rapid rise in infections over the months of June and July, the daily increase in infections recently appears to be stabilising. There is a noted decrease, particularly in the larger provinces of the Western Cape, Gauteng and Eastern Cape. However, KZN still provides some challenges. Over and above the improved national case recovery rate of more than 80%, the case fatality rate has also improved to around 1.6%.
This suggests that the prevention measures that South Africans have implemented are having an effect. This was confirmed by the Minister of Health who informs us that there is now sufficient hospital capacity, including beds, ICU space and ventilators. Consequently, we have called for the temporary suspension of the building of field hospitals and will redirect funding to maintaining and repairing existing health facilities.
As we continue with our fight against the impact of the COVID-19 virus, we aim to limit hardship, and there is no desire to leave stringent prohibitions in place for longer than necessary.
It is for that reason that we have lifted the restrictions on a number of areas, but have maintained the curfew between 10 pm and 4am. Interprovincial travel is now permitted. The sale of tobacco and tobacco products is now permitted. The sale of Alcohol at off sale and retail outlets is permitted, albeit with restrictions, of sale only between Monday and Thursday from 9am to 5pm. Alcohol can also be served by licensed establishments such as restaurants, bars and taverns daily from 06h00 to 22h00. These establishments can only operate with a maximum of 50 patrons so long as the health and hygiene protocols are observed. These include a 1,5 meters distance amongst the patrons, the sanitization of surfaces, the washing of hands and the wearing of masks.
We have also opened up gyms and fitness centers and they are also permitted to conduct business with a maximum of 50 people and subject to strict health and hygiene protocols. Restrictions on beaches have also been lifted subject to COVID-19 prevention protocols and directions to be issued. The resumption of water-based activities and certain categories of tourism activities including boat-based whale watching, scuba diving, shark cage diving, kayaking, river rafting, and speed boat rides, are also opened.
Certain environmental sector activities are opened up including Zoos, Aquaria, animal sanctuaries and rehabilitation centres, subject to strict health and hygiene protocols including sanitisation, wearing of masks and the maintenance of social distancing. To further mitigate the risks the Department of Health is working with the relevant departments and sectors to develop guidelines.
Hospitality and entertainment businesses such as accommodation establishments, tour operators, and casinos can operate at 50% of floor capacity. Theaters and cinemas are now permitted to operate at a maximum of 50 persons subjects to health and hygiene protocols such as mask wearing, social distancing, sanitization and washing of hands.
Social events at places of residence are now permitted. This includes visits to friends and family so long as there are no more than ten visitors and the health protocols of wearing of masks, sanitisation, washing of hands and safe social distance are observed.
Social gatherings such as funerals and weddings are now permitted so long as there are no more than 50 people gathered. We will continue with the restriction of no night vigils.
It is our hope that in undertaking these activities we will maintain the strict protocols of social distancing, wearing of masks, sanitization, and washing of hands. We must therefore exercise more caution and be more vigilant than before. It is our actions now that will determine our future. , When we further open the economy the risks mount and could lead to a resurgence and a second wave.
We are in it for the long haul. Therefore, we must remain vigilant and not tire. As once said by former president Mbeki “those who complete the course will do so only because they do not, as fatigue sets in, convince themselves that the road ahead is still too long, the inclines too steep, the loneliness impossible to bear and the prize itself of doubtful value.”
We must, therefore, protect each other because we are not safe until we are all safe. As we undertake social visits let’s keep our masks on, lets wash our hands and maintain a safe social distance.
Mase niphuzile buyelani emakhaya, but do not get behind the wheel. Let us drink responsibly and protect all our people especially women and children. Let’s not abuse women and children and pick fights.
We would not like to return to higher levels of restrictions so we must all act responsibly. When we smoke cigarettes let us not share them as the virus moves with people, it has no legs.
Given the high levels of risk associated with international travel, we will continue with such restrictions. Having seen how young people have carried the virus to the elderly from night clubs we will continue with closing them. To limit risk we have also implemented restrictions of spectators at sporting events. No spectators are allowed. Cruise ships for leisure are also not allowed.
We also alluded to the fact that all our efforts are directed at the delicate balance of saving lives and livelihoods. To which end we said the strategy was a dynamic roadmap that would strive to maintain relevance and advance our fight to protect people and secure their livelihoods.
We wish to thank all South Africans, individuals, traditional leaders, NGOs workers, women’s organisations, youth organisations for their support and contribution in our fight against COVID-19.
Even though we have eased restrictions the risk is also increasing for it is people who move the virus. We must with vigilance to defeat the virus together for we must soldier on and work together. Indeed it’s all in our hands.
I thank you
