As we head into fall and prepare to go back to school and work, staying open is in your hands. In a recent survey, 99% of Calgarians say that they know what to do to stop the spread of COVID-19; now it’s time to put that knowledge to the test.
These steps are our best defence against COVID-19:
- When you go out, spread out. Keep 2 metres of distance between yourself and others.
- If you cannot consistently maintain a safe physical distance of 2 metres from others, wear a face covering. Face coverings are meant to control what comes out of the wearer’s mouth and nose and are worn to protect people around them – not to provide protection for the wearer.
- Continue to wash your hands, especially before you go outside, and again when you return home. Good hand hygiene will help to limit the spread of COVID-19.
- If you are feeling unwell, stay home to protect others and limit the spread.
