 *What to do to* *keep yourself* *and others safe* *from COVID-19* 

•       *Maintain* *at least a 1* *-metre distance* *between* *yourself and* *others* to reduce your risk of infection when they cough, sneeze or speak.

•       *Make* *wearing a* *mask a normal* part of being around other people. The appropriate use, storage and cleaning or disposal is essential to make masks as effective as possible.

     *Make your* *environment* *safer* 

•       Avoid the 3Cs: spaces that are closed, crowded or involve close contact.
