Late summer, to autumn/fall, into winter and Lockdown continues….
According to President Cyril Ramaphosa, South Africa “won't be moving back to Levels 4 or 5 of the lockdown despite the rapid increase of COVID-19 infections. [Instead, he’s] calling on South Africans to protect themselves through social distancing, washing of hands and wearing masks.”

- South Africa on Saturday reported more than 10,000 new coronavirus infections, the highest daily jump on record for the country [so far]. … [Gauteng] health ministry showed 10,853 new confirmed COVID-19 cases, taking the cumulative tally since March when the virus first arrived in the country to 187,977. (Gauteng will soon surpass 50,000 COVID-19 infections; death toll at 282. "By the end of the weekend, we would have passed 50,000 going towards 60,000.")
- In the Land of the Free and “exceptional” US, Trump,
...delivered another deeply divisive speech to mark Independence Day… comparing the US's fight against Nazis and terrorists to his efforts to defeat "the radical left" in the US and accusing social justice protesters of trying to destroy America.
And same old cronyism comorbid with the other virus raging through the White House – denial, lying, deflection – as Trump’s trade adviser and Whackjob Peter Navarro rants Whackadoodle-itude.
