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

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
