ALWAYS REMEMBER THE BASICS - HANDS - FACE - SPACE & FRESH AIR

● Keep rooms well ventilated. The virus is spread through aerosol particles in the air, so opening windows regularly can cut the amount of virus present in the air in any room.

● Wear a face covering. In shops, hairdressers, barbers, on public transport and in other indoor spaces where social distancing is hard.

● Even once you’ve had both of your coronavirus vaccination, you must continue to follow all the guidance to control the virus and save lives. Any questions?
