Advocate Stephan du Toit, who owns a wine farm, argues that alcohol itself does not facilitate the spread of Covid-19 and therefore its sale should not be restricted in the regulations issued in terms of the act.

Restricting trade to 12 hours a week is bound to lead to long queues outside off-licences. Even if retailers make arrangements to limit the number of customers inside a shop at any given time, the bottleneck at the door, particularly near closing time, will deliver the perfect environment for the transmission of the disease.

All liquor outlets have been closed since March 27. Many store proprietors have already furloughed or laid off staff. They will make arrangements to ensure high-risk customers can be identified and managed accordingly, and have proposed erecting protective barrier screens at all public interface points.They have also proposed restrictions on the volumes supplied - to mitigate against the risk of resale and to minimise the frequency of travel to liquor outlets to prevent panic buying.

The association's spokesperson Sean Robinson said seven weeks of zero trading would put any business at risk.
