There is no silver bullet for preventing or curing COVID-19 yet, so the best we can do is work together to keep safe and well. This is the Y NSW checklist for keeping COVIDSafe when you come to the Y.
- Get vaccinated. It is the best way to prevent you from becoming seriously ill and reduces the chance of transmitting COVID-19 to others.
- Wear a mask. Studies have shown that mask-wearing reduces the transmission of COVID-19 in the community.
- Wash your hands regularly.
- Keep at least 1.5m apart and observe all physical distancing practices, particularly indoors.
- Follow public health orders about travel, socialising in groups, leaving home for essential reasons while lockdowns apply.
- Monitor for COVID-19 symptoms and if you have any, get tested as soon as possible. Stay home until you have a negative result.
