#TheTakeOffInterview| For the first time in the event’s 124-year history, Vodacom Durban July goes online for the 2020 edition
 
Known as Africa’s Greatest Horseracing Event, the Vodacom Durban July (VDJ) usually attracts thousands of eager punters and fashionistas to Durban’s Greyville Racecourse, but the current lockdown measures have seen organisers change things up a bit.
Given the reality of the present circumstances, the race meeting will be staged behind closed doors and without spectators.
The final field for this year’s Vodacom Durban July has been announced, giving punters plenty of time to work out their top picks and back their favourites. This year’s prize money totals R4.25 million with the winner taking around R2.5 million, second- place R800 000, third-place R400 000 and fourth-place R200 000.
 
 Guest: Stephen Marshall, Senior Events and Marketing Executive in Greyville Racecourse

#TheTakeOffInterview| Research into the tobacco sales ban|Recent research has shown that the average price of cigarettes has increased by nearly 250% compared to pre-lockdown levels. More than a quarter of people who quit during lockdown indicated that they would start smoking again after the sales ban is lifted
Has the tobacco sales ban successfully in minimized the spread of Covid-19?

Nearly 30% of respondents indicated that they had tried to quit during the lockdown. The main reason, as indicated by 56% of respondents who tried to quit, was the high prices of cigarettes. Another 14% of respondents indicated that they had tried to quit because they were unable to find cigarettes. Only 11% of respondents that tried to quit indicated that they did so because of the sales ban.
The authors argue that the intention of the sales ban, in terms of smokers quitting and reducing spreading COVID-19 through cigarette sharing, is undermined by the fact that so many people are still smoking cigarettes and by the increased occurrence of cigarette sharing. They conclude that the extension of the ban beyond lockdown level 5 has been misguided, and recommend that the ban be lifted immediately. The sales ban has stimulated the already large illicit market. Illegal distribution channels have become more entrenched, which will have lasting public health and economic consequences. For every additional month that the sales ban continues, the government loses at least R1 billion in revenues.
