People sit far apart at the CGV cinema amid the COVID-19 pandemic in Jakarta, Indonesia, October 21 2020.The University of Fort Hare has announced that there are 125 confirmed Covid-19 cases at the Eastern Cape tertiary institution.

It attributed the spike to an increase in social gatherings, at which health and safety protocols are not followed. The health department in the Eastern Cape has launched a testing and tracing campaign after 30 Fort Hare University students tested positive for Covid-19. They may be more comfortable and easier to breathe through, but face masks with valves or vents, masks with a single layer of thin fabric and neck buffs are not effective in containing the droplets we expel when talking, sneezing or coughing.
