1. Law Enforcement must take charge of this city. Indiscriminately fine the homeless - especially in winter - as it will fundamentally deter more homeless from living in the inner city; 2.

Lets not pay attention to other areas in our City where shootings and murders take place, because that is a National SAPS matter.

The virus may not discriminate BUT the pre-conditions of racial, income and spatial inequality and lacking basic services are determining the spread of COVID-19 in Cape Town.
