COVID-19 Community Public Notices

We are closely monitoring the evolving COVID-19 pandemic and taking proactive measures to prevent the spread.

We strongly encourage everyone to do their part and help "flatten the curve":

Social distancing; even though you may not be sick, please maintain at least 2 metres (6 feet) from one another
Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds
Do not touch your face, eyes, nose or mouth with unwashed hands
When you sneeze or cough, cover your mouth and nose with a disposable tissue or the crease of your elbow
Regularly clean and disinfect frequently touched surfaces
Do not share food, drinks, utensils, etc.
Avoid others who are unwell
Stay at home if you are unwell

Also, we implore the community to:

Only rely on official sources of information
Not engage in panic buying or hoarding (you should have enough supplies to quarantine for 14 days; beyond that you are negatively impacting your neighbours)

Essential services will be maintained to respond to emergencies
