Stay COVID safe

Vaccination
Staying up to date with your recommended vaccinations, for both COVID-19 and flu, is a simple step you can take to help protect yourself and your family.

Wearing a mask protects you and others
Masks provide an extra layer of protection against COVID-19 and flu. Masks are strongly recommended in indoor public spaces, especially where it’s crowded.

Keep your germs at home
If you feel unwell, staying at home will reduce the risk of passing your illness onto people at school, work and in the community.

Get together where there’s fresh air
Well ventilated places reduce the risk of transmission of COVID-19 and flu. Keep doors and windows open where practical or choose to gather outdoors.

Rapid antigen tests
Rapid antigen tests are a quick way to detect COVID-19. They are an additional tool to help to stop the spread of COVID-19 in the community. Find out more about RATs.
