Protecting Yourself
Posted on
What can you do to help stop the spread?
Wash your hands frequently with soap and water for twenty seconds. Do this before and after eating, after going to the toilet and more often if you have contacts with others or outside of your home. If soap and water is not available you can use an alcohol based hand sanitiser (with atleast 60% alcohol), for 20 seconds.
Cover your cough or sneeze. Dispose of the tissue used and if no tissues available use the crook of your elbow then wash or sanitise hands.
Avoid contact with others, especially if unwell (stay more than 1.5 metres from people). Particularly if you are over 70 or have other significant illnesses - STAY AT HOME
