One of the little things you can do to protect yourself & others through this next wave is to wear a mask in indoor public places where you can't physically distance. You never know the circumstances of the person next to you & it will help protect you from respiratory illnesses

We are at the start of a 3rd COVID-19 Omicron wave and expect to see a significant rise in cases. Please continue to do the little things: stay home when unwell, test if you have symptoms & stay up to date with your vaccinations. More health.nsw.gov.au/news/Pages/202…

There are so many great events to look forward to in NSW this long weekend. Just remember when attending events, it's the little things that will make a big difference to everyone staying well - like testing before you go, wearing a mask in crowded places and staying home if sick

Happy #IWD2021 Women play a key leadership role in the COVID-19 response and many other aspects of healthcare delivery. It’s inspiring to be surrounded by passionate, driven people with a ‘can do’ spirit. Thank you for your super human efforts, we couldn’t do this without you!
