STATEMENT BY THE WESTERN CAPE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH:

If you live in the Cape Metro and you have tested positive for coronavirus, you need to isolate.

And if you have symptoms or have come into close contact with someone who has coronavirus, you need to quarantine, even if you have not been tested.

Western Cape Government can help you with free, comfortable and safe alternative accommodation. We will provide transport, meals, and a laundry service.

We need you to quarantine or isolate to protect those most vulnerable for coronavirus, like the elderly or those who have long standing illnesses. Together we can protect the ones we love.
