Members of the public are urged to:
- Wash your hands properly with soap and water, or alcohol-based hand sanitiser if soap and water are unavailable;

- Avoid touching your face;
- Practice social distancing—that is no kissing, hugging or hand-shaking, and avoid mass gatherings;
- Sanitise hard surfaces as often as possible, such as tabletops, handrails, doorknobs and trolleys;

- Stay home if you are ill.
