Full interview: Gary and Andy Cronje - From China to SA and a Covid-19 tragedy

Loading player...
Here's the full half hour interview with South African schoolteachers Gary and Andy Cronje who were based in China when the Covid-19 crisis hit and spent weeks in lockdown there. They returned home to SA last month for their 14 day self-imposed isolation to be rapidly followed by the 21 day national lockdown - and then the news of the Covid-19 death of their 50 year old "brother" who fetched them at the airport. A fascinating tale from a couple whose lives over the last few months have been as intertwined. Riveting and sad, but with some good practical advice from a couple who have been through the Covid-19 mill. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
