#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.

First things first (A story that we wake up to that has got our attention, which listeners can also take a bite in )

Topic: A family says it is shocked after it received the body of someone who died from Covid-19, rather than their relative. 
The Ngqezana family in PE said they grew suspicious when the parlour brought the body in a coffin wrapped in plastic. 
The family said the undertaker ripped the plastic open to show them the body - and it was not their loved one.  

The Ngqezana family is not alone this is fast becoming a trend due to stringent Covid-19 regulations.

Have you experienced or seen this happening around you where families are burying strangers?

#TheTakeOffInterview| Legal Tuesdays|We have received correspondence from some of our listeners regarding the lack of transparency when it comes to how their companies are dealing with covid-19. Some alleging that companies are withholding information about positive cases or force them to work even when there are a lot of cases …So what are the rights of the employees where Covid-19 is concerned?
