A message from the HKPR District Health Unit:
If visiting others this holiday weekend, the Health Unit encourages the following:
- Stay home if sick, even if mild symptoms.
- Make sure you are up to date with your COVID-19 vaccines, including having a booster dose.
- A strong recommendation to wear masks if visiting inside with others. Masks are an easy, effective way to reduce the spread of COVID-19.
- If hosting a get-together, let guests know in advance what your expectations are around COVID-19 prevention measures (like mask use).
- Wash your hands with soap and water thoroughly and often and sneeze and cough into your sleeve
- Open a window or door to increase ventilation if gathering indoors. If the weather permits, take the celebration outside.
