A video was posted to Twitter by user @MakhesaMavunda, showing a customer shocked at staff not wearing their masks or protective gear. “They are having discussions without masks. Betina, we are expected to wear masks."

The fast-food restaurant has had to provide training and verbal warnings to the staff at the outlet of a local mall who were preparing food with no masks on.
Customers are now wondering if ordering takeaways during lockdown is as safe as they thought it would be.
