Actions to keep yourself and others healthy

• Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, especially after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing; going to the bathroom; and before eating or preparing food
• Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands
• Stay at home when you are sick
• Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue, then throw the tissue in the bin

Healthcare officials are advising persons who are unwell to wear masks, rather than the healthy, with the exception of medical staff working directly with infected persons. This is at the discretion of individuals, but it is advised if you feel unwell and need to go out in public to wear a protective mask.
