There's an interesting article here:
https://www.thesouthafrican.com/cape...from-day-zero/
about potential areas that might be exempt from zero-day restrictions. But, it reads as if much of it is up in the air.
I communicated with couple locals there, one is in CT and the other is in Durban. They said it is a reality! People will have to evacuate out of town and shutdown during "Day Zero" period. Bases on the above article/link, CBD would be exempt. If so, will some hotels continue to open? And restaurants and services? Is this in question? I am debating should we find an accommodation that continue to open during this period or would it be so bad to visit and should cancel to another year? What would you do in this scenario? Thanks.
