Data note: As the province moves closer to the peak and the Department of Health is recording over 1000 new cases daily, it is not possible to check and verify that the address data supplied for each new case is correct, within the time frames required to provide regular and timely updates. This means that in some instances, cases could be allocated to the wrong sub-districts. We are working with the sub-districts to clean and verify the data and where errors are picked up locally, cases will be re-allocated to the correct areas.

The Western Cape has recorded an additional 45 deaths, bringing the total number of COVID-19 related deaths in the province to 2014. We send our condolences to their loved ones at this time.
Today marks the 100th day since South Africa went in to lockdown to slow the spread of the Coronavirus.
