Thank you for your patience.
If you’re planning on travelling in the upcoming months, you will probably be aware of the recent outbreak of COVID-19 (Coronavirus). Here are some top tips on how to stay safe whilst on the road:
How to avoid Coronavirus?
- Regularly wash your hands thoroughly (for 20 second) with an alcohol-based hand rub or hot soap and water
- Keep your distance from people who are coughing or sneezing
- Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth.
- Make sure you, and the other people around you, are covering their mouth and nose with a tissue when they sneeze, dispose of the tissue straight away and then wash your hands. This will help stop the virus from spreading.
What to do if you feel unwell
- If you have a fever, cough and difficulty breathing make sure to seek medical advice early. In the UK you can contact NHS 111 by dialling 111 or heading to their website.
- Follow the advice of your health care professional and avoid public spaces with large crowds of people.
