Family members put on their white protective gloves as they approach the coffin of their relative before taking it from the AVBOB hearse to the grave during the funeral of an un-named Covid-19 Coronavirus victim at a graveyard near Katlehong township on the 118 day of lockdown due to the Covid-19 Coronavirus, Johannesburg, South Africa, 23 July 2020. Harsh government lockdown rules only allow less than 50 people at any funeral with social distancing being critical. South Africa has just reached the 450 000 infection mark from the pandemic accounting for almost two-thirds of all cases registered to date in Africa and the fifth country with the highest number of infections worldwide.
