South Africa partly lifts lockdown to try to fix battered economy

June 01, 2020 - Johannesburg, South Africa, Africa - South Africa partly lifts a two month-old coronavirus lockdown, letting people outside for work, worship, exercise or shopping, and allowing mines and factories to run at full capacity to try to revive the economy. Schools had been ordered to open, but the education ministry delayed the return of pupils by a week until June 8 to give more time for teachers to be trained and receive protective gear.
