News24.com | WRAP | Govt to use cellphone numbers to trace those with Covid-19, global cases hit 1 million
WRAP | Govt will use cell phone numbers to trace people with Covid-19, police arrest 2 289 for violating regulations, ‘too early’ too say whether lockdown will last beyond 21 days
Cabinet ministers held another briefing on Thursday evening.
Minister of Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs (Cogta), Nkosasana Dlamini-Zuma, has announced a raft of changes to lockdown regulations, including people being allowed to cross provinces to attend funerals.
She said it is “too early” for the government to say whether the lockdown will continue past 21 days.
The minister has also clarified that all spaza shops can stay open, and has now allowed informal food sellers to remain open throughout the lockdown.
She said in a briefing on Thursday evening that people who want to attend funerals in other provinces must obtain a permit from a magistrate or a station commander at a police station. People travelling for funerals will also be allowed to stay in lodges or hotels.
She clarified that funerals still have a 50-person limit, but gravediggers and undertakers do not count in this number. She said night vigils are still not allowed.
Dlamini-Zuma further announced that the government will now be tracing people who are positive with coronavirus via their cell phone numbers. This is to allow the medical staff to pinpoint who that person may have come into contact with.
Adjustments to the regulations make it compulsory for medical staff to take essential information from everyone tested for Covid-19, including names, ID numbers and contact information.
Police Minister Bheki Cele said police have arrested 2 289 people since the start of the lockdown for violating regulations. He warned that there are 24 389 law enforcement officers on the streets.
Cele clarified that no cigarettes can be sold, and knocked down the Western Cape government saying on Thursday that vendors would be allowed to sell cigarettes.
Home Affairs Minister Aaron Motsoaledi said fuel cargo and other goods will now be allowed to come into the country. Previously, only essential goods were allowed.
He said South Africans stuck abroad are allowed to return now, and likewise foreign nationals stuck in South Africa can go back to their countries.
Minister of Human Settlements, Water and Sanitation, Lindiwe Sisiulu, said government has centralised all water service delivery via command service. This is the place where people can call for water queries. The command centre is situated in Johannesburg.
Health24.com | Mild coronavirus cases often appear with only gastro symptoms
When most people think of the new coronavirus, they imagine symptoms such as a dry cough and high fever. But new research out of China shows that a minority of cases appear with gastrointestinal symptoms only.
In about one-quarter of patients in the new study, diarrhoea and other digestive symptoms were the only symptoms seen in mild Covid-19 cases, and those patients sought medical care later than those with respiratory symptoms.
“Failure to recognise these patients early and often may lead to unwitting spread of the disease among outpatients with mild illness, who remain undiagnosed and unaware of their potential to infect others,” said a team from Union Hospital and Tongji Medical College in Wuhan, China, the original epicentre of the coronavirus pandemic.
“The data in this study highlight the presence and features of this important subgroup of Covid-19 patients and should be confirmed in larger international studies,” the researchers concluded.
Virus throws a curveball
One US expert agreed.
“We are only now learning the varied spectrum of symptoms for patients who present with Covid-19,” said Dr Robert Glatter, an emergency medicine physician at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York City.
“This virus has thrown a curveball at us, as we now realise that gastrointestinal symptoms may be the initial signs of the disease, even without cough, fever, or difficulty breathing,” he said. “The good news is that the majority of patients with gastrointestinal symptoms typically have mild disease.”
In the new study, the research team tracked data from 206 patients with mild Covid-19. Nearly one-quarter (48) had digestive symptoms only, 69 displayed both digestive and respiratory symptoms, and 89 had respiratory symptoms only.
Of the patients with digestive symptoms, 67 had diarrhoea, the study found. Of those, about one in five had diarrhoea as the first symptom in the course of their illness.
Patients with digestive symptoms ill for longer
Diarrhoea lasted between one to 14 days, with an average duration of more than five days and a frequency of about four bowel movements a day.
About one-third of patients with a digestive symptom did not have a fever, the investigators found.
Patients with digestive symptoms took longer to seek medical care than those with respiratory symptoms (16 days versus 11 days), a finding that was consistent with previous research.
The new study also found that patients with digestive symptoms had a longer total time between the start of symptoms and being clear of the coronavirus, were more likely to have coronavirus in their faeces (73% versus 14%), and were ill longer than those with respiratory symptoms.
The study was recently published online in the American Journal of Gastroenterology.
Study considered ‘vital’
The Chinese team stressed that of course there are many illnesses circulating in the community that can trigger gastrointestinal symptoms, “and most instances of new-onset diarrhoea, nausea, vomiting, or low appetite are not from Covid-19.”
Still, “clinicians should recognise that new-onset, acute digestive symptoms in a patient with a possible Covid-19 contact should at least prompt consideration of the illness,” the researchers explained.
Dr Brennan Spiegel is co-editor-in-chief of the journal. He called the study “vital because it represents the 80% or more of patients who do not have severe or critical disease. This is about the more common scenario of people in the community struggling to figure out if they might have Covid-19 because of new-onset diarrhoea, nausea, or vomiting.”
Glatter agreed.
“It’s vital to recognise this key aspect of how the disease presents, since it can trigger the need for self-quarantine,” he said.

Sport24.co.za | ‘Fizzling’ Newlands farewell a concern for Stormers
Lloyd Burnard – Sport24
One of the most iconic venues in South African rugby history, Newlands is threatening to limp towards the finish line.
Register your interest for the British & Irish Lions tickets in South Africa 2021
The stadium, which boasts a stunning 130-year history, is in its final season before a likely demolition and an almost certain move to Cape Town Stadium for Western Province and the Stormers.
Super Rugby 2020 represented one final opportunity for the Stormers and Cape Town to say goodbye to the stadium coach John Dobson calls the “great old lady of South African rugby.”
Before the start of the season, Dobson and the Stormers were using Newlands as their primary motivation. They wanted to go the distance in Super Rugby to pay their respects to the people that have occupied the Newlands seats for decades.
“There is going to be a lot of emotion for them, but it has to work in our favour,” Dobson said at the time.
“We absolutely love Newlands. There is only one real way to say farewell.”
Now, after just seven rounds of fixtures, Super Rugby 2020 could be done and dusted as the coronavirus crisis leaves the sporting world in limbo.
Dobson and his players remain hopeful that they will get back on the park – Super Rugby 2020 would likely start from scratch in a shortened format if that was the case – but Newlands standing empty in its final season is causing the franchise some concern.
“It is a source of anxiety for us,” Dobson acknowledged on Wednesday.
“With the Currie Cup format as it was published, we play the Sharks, Griquas and Cheetahs at home in that Currie Cup format. It’s not a great way to say goodbye to Newlands.
“The Newlands fizzle is a source of concern.”
If Super Rugby is completely scrapped, then the 2020 edition of the Currie Cup could be the next domestic rugby South Africans have.
One positive spin-off could potentially be the public, who would have been starved of sport for months, attending matches again.
“If we did get back on the field in a month or two, I would think there would have to be something around Super Rugby just because of the rights and sponsors. After that I think you could play a brilliant Currie Cup,” Dobson said.
“I think the most important thing for rugby is to reset and use this time to put people back in the stadium.
“Currie Cup, if the Springboks are playing and given the absence of rugby, could work.
“I know SA Rugby have task teams and it’s being worked on, but I think it’s important for the national psyche once there is some kind of normality that, if you can, get guys in closed stadiums who have isolated before in a safe environment.
“It would be great for the people to have something to look forward to on a Saturday.”
