COVID-19 UPDATE

Please notify or call our receptionists before seeing the Doctor, and wear a face mask

Who is at risk?

People who have:

• been in close/casual contact with a person with COVID-19, and with/without symptoms.
• visited or transited through a higher risk country in the previous 14 days

As there is increasing community transmission in a number of countries around the world, anyone who has travelled overseas in the past 14 days is at increased risk.

People with underlying illnesses that make them more vulnerable to respiratory disease, including those with diabetes, chronic lung disease, kidney failure, people with suppressed immune systems and older people are at a higher risk of serious disease.

How is it prevented?

• Clean your hands with soap and water for 20 seconds, or an alcohol-based hand rub.
• Cover your nose and mouth when coughing and sneezing with tissue or a flexed elbow
• Avoid close contact with anyone with cold or flu-like symptoms.
• Practice cough etiquette (keep away from other people, cover coughs and sneezes with disposable tissues or clothing, and clean your hands.
• Travellers to Asia should not visit live bird and animal markets, including ‘wet’ markets.
