[Evergreen Diep River] ELV DR>Circular 24 - Adjusted Lockdown Restrictions Level 3 – 26 July 2021*

Wed Jul 28 12:03:20 SAST 2021

        Dear Resident

President Cyril Ramaphosa eased lockdown restrictions this week, citing fewer Covid-19 infections, most notably in Gauteng. The president, however, cautioned that a slowing in infections does not mean the wave is over but is simply in decline. The majority of the 7773 new cases yesterday were from Gauteng. It contributed 30%, followed by the Western Cape at 20%, KwaZulu-Natal accounted for 16% and the Eastern Cape 10%.

The NICD’s predicts that most provinces will have peaked by early to mid-August, with the third wave bottoming out in early September. But some health experts have warned that the low numbers of infections could be short-lived – predicting that a fourth wave could start emerging as early as October.

What we have to understand is that this virus is here to stay and it is up to us to stay vigilant and careful and protect each other. The fact that residents have had the vaccine, will stand us in good stead and protect us to a certain degree. It will not prevent us from getting the virus.

As the country moves to adjusted level 3 of lockdown the following restrictions apply to the Village:

BISTRO & SOCIAL ACTIVIITES

  *   Luncheon meals will be reinstated in the Bistro for ALL residents who wish to enjoy a meal. Please maintain your distance, sanitise when you enter and only take your mask off to eat and drink.
  *   Take-Away meals will still be available on order and will be delivered to your home.
  *   ALL social engagements and activities will slowly be re-introduced and health protocols must be maintained at all times
  *   The August calendar will be finalised and placed on the board in reception once all activities have been confirmed.
ONLINE SHOPPING & DELVERIES

  *   Whenever possible please restrict going to shopping malls.
  *   Pick ‘n Pay will continue to deliver to our Village and your order should be in by no later than Friday afternoon for the Monday delivery run.
  *   All grocery deliveries and take-out deliveries are to be collected and paid for in the basement.
VISITORS
Just to remind you what our village COVID-19 protocols are for family members and visitors:

  *   All visitors will have to be screened at the security guardhouse on entering the village. Visitors will have their temperatures recorded as well as be sanitised and will need to provide contact details. This is to ensure we have accurate traceability in the event of infection.
  *   Family members and close friends may enter the village to visit residents in their homes. Grandchildren (under 18’s) will not be allowed to visit and we respectfully request that this restriction is adhered to.
  *   We recommend that there are only four people in your home (including yourselves/visitors) at any one time.
  *   We strongly recommend that visitors keep their masks on at all times and that even in your homes you maintain the 2-meter distancing protocol.
  *   Residents are also expected to keep record of their visitors for tracing purposes should the need arise
  *   All visitors must wear three-ply cloth masks at ALL times and remember to wash hands and sanitise regularly.
HOUSEKEEPING

  *   Private domestic workers may enter the village and must wear three-ply cloth masks at ALL times. We suggest that they do not work in the same area/space occupied by residents and that a 2-meter social distance is maintained. A protective face mask should be worn by the resident at all times whilst the service is underway
MAINTENANCE

  *   It is recommended that non-essential internal work be limited as far as possible to avoid unnecessary contact with contractors.
  *   Emergency and essential repairs will continue under the same guidelines currently in place.
  *   Residents will be required to maintain and manage safe distancing between themselves and workers at all times.
TRAVEL/ISOLATION

  *   We encourage residents to curb travel arrangements to other provinces until further notice. However, should a resident insist on leaving the village to travel, they will be required to go straight into isolation for the required number of days on their return home.  This is a non-negotiable.
All residents must maintain their distance, wear a three-ply cloth mask that covers the nose and mouth when they leave their homes or when they are in a public space (this is now mandatory and has become law in South Africa). Plastic face shields are not a replacement for a cloth mask and must be worn in conjunction with a face mask, but not on their own

We would again like to reiterate to all residents to please alert the Village Manager as soon as you experience any COVID-19 symptoms, such as a sore throat; a fever or increased temperature; a dry cough; body aches; or shortness of breath; loss of taste and/or smell. If you suspect that you have coronavirus symptoms, please call the clinic or reception for assistance – please REMAIN in your unit. It is vital that you report to Village Management as soon as you are not feeling well and that you isolate and do not socialise with other residents.

We have stood together during some tough times and I am grateful for your support. Please call me on Ext 1406 or Amanda on Ext 1401 should you require any additional information.  If anything is unclear or you have any questions, please feel free to contact me directly.  And finally, a friendly reminder that my team and I are, as always, at the ready to assist you with any request you may have.

Kind regards
