Cape Town - City of Cape Town employees claim they have been denied the right to self-isolate after experiencing Covid-19 related symptoms.
An Independent Municipal Trade Union representative said the employees, whose identities are known to the Weekend Argus, reported for duty but experienced Covid-19 symptoms. They informed their superiors but were told they could only self-isolate after producing a Covid-19-positive lab result.

During the time, another employee got infected and the two members were only able to produce their results on the Wednesday after having been sick since Monday,” he said. ....
