South Africa announced its first deaths from the coronavirus Friday as the country’s cases rose well above 1,000 and a three-week lockdown began, with military patrolling and police screaming at the homeless on quiet streets. “People are just doing as they please,” Soweto resident Mothibedi Mohoje said. South Africa’s 1,170 cases are the most in Africa, with the total across the continent now above 3,500.
