How to protect yourself and others
Everybody is at risk of getting COVID-19. For most people, they will only develop mild illness and recover easily, but others may develop severe sickness.
To protect yourself, your family and the community from getting COVID-19 you must maintain good hygiene and practice social distancing (also called physical distancing).
Do
- Stay home if you are sick
- If you have any COVID-19 symptoms, no matter how mild, get tested
- Stay 1.5 metres away from other people—think two big steps
- Wash your hands often, using soap and water or hand sanitiser
- Sneeze or cough into your arm or a tissue. Then put the tissue in the bin
- Wear a face mask when you are not able to keep 1.5 metres away from other people or whenever mandatory face masks are required.
Do not
- Go near people if you are coughing or sneezing
- Touch your mouth, nose and eyes
- Shake hands
- Hug or kiss people.
