How to protect yourself and others

Until the COVID-19 vaccine is widely available, it’s important to practice Peel Public Health’s Core Four actions to protect yourself and others.

1. Stay apart. Maintain 2-metres distance from anyone who doesn’t live with you or is not your essential caregiver.
2. Lather up. Wash your hands often with soap and water or use hand sanitizer.
3. Mask up. Wear a non-medical mask when it’s difficult to maintain physical distance and where masks are mandatory. Protect the supply of medical grade masks for health care workers.
4. Get tested. If you think you might have COVID-19 or have been exposed to it you should get tested. While waiting for test results, stay home, self-isolate and prevent potential spread.

You can also download the COVID Alert mobile app on the Apple store or Google Play.
