Explanation:
South Africa has witnessed some successes as well as failures in her efforts to curb the spread of coronavirus by banning the sales of cigarettes and alcohol in late March and July, 2020. As South Africa has remained at the epicenter of the virus in Africa, recording about 13,000 deaths, the highest in Africa, the government of Cyril Ramaphosa decided to prohibit sales of these products.
