#TakeResponsibility
#TakeResponsibility to raise awareness on the importance of washing our hands 🙌🏾 with soap and running water to fight off infections like #COVID19 and #Cholera.

Let’s continue to encourage our loved ones and those around us to adhere to prevention behaviours for a healthier and safer future.

#HandHygieneforAll
Not everyone infected with #COVID19 shows symptoms.

Remember to maintain a HIGH index of suspicion for #COVID19 and adhere to all preventive measures. Always:

wear a face mask properly in public places
maintain a physical distance of 2 metres
