Here’s how coronavirus has flipped the switch in the country in the past few days.
What's the lowdown? In short, the surge in coronavirus cases has Mzansi in a P-A-N-I-C!
Say what now? Every day, more cases are being announced, sending shock waves around the country.
Why, exactly? You didn't hear? OK, here's the 411: On Sunday, President Cyril Ramaphosa declared the pandemic a national disaster.
His address to the nation came after Mzansi demanded government take more action to protect the population from the outbreak, under the hashtag #LOCKDOWNSOUTHAFRICA.
And what did Ramaphosa do? He gave the people what they wanted, revoking travel visas from high-risk countries.
He also banned social gatherings and events with more than 100 people to enforce social distancing. Say goodbye to living your best lives at nightclubs and so forth.
