The IPC unit urged taxi drivers and hawkers to continue playing their role in protecting themselves, their passengers and customers.
During the engagementSister Pearl Khumalo demonstrated to the members of the community the proper manner of  wearing a mask, washing of hands and sanitising and emphasised the importance of maintaining social distance.
