South African based comedian Long John has cancelled his shows due to the pandemic that has killed over 9000 since its outbreak in December 2019, The Chronicle reports.
Speaking to the publication, Long John said;
Well it’s bad for every artiste because shows have been cancelled or postponed. I was supposed to be doing a tour in Morocco right now but everything is on hold and the worst thing is we don’t know how long it will take
I’ve self-quarantined myself and am thinking about going to get tested for the virus though I’ve no symptoms of the disease. I want to do it as a precautionary measure you never know if you have it or not.
The Comedian has also cancelled his local shows after South Africa prohibited gatherings of more than 100 persons. COVID-19 cases in South Africa have soared to 116 since the first case was recorded over 2 weeks ago.
