The Covid-19 pandemic might have caused widespread devastation for South Africans from all walks of life but for Daniel Campbell (not his real name) the novel coronavirus presented him with the perfect opportunity to kick his excessive drinking habits.
âI am ashamed to admit this but I would drink about five days a week and two of them were days where I would usually binge drink,â the 25-year-old from the south of Johannesburg explained to The Saturday Star this week.
But when the country went into an unprecedented lockdown at the end of March last year, Campbell decided to use this time in isolation to make changes to his lifestyle.
