#TakeResponsibility to keep up protective measures to help you stay safe from #COVID19

Large gatherings held indoors and with poor adherence to safety guidelines increase the risk of the spread of #COVID19.

#CelebrateResponsibly

The spread of infectious disease outbreaks such as #cholera, #COVID19 and #LassaFever can be prevented if healthy physical and environmental practices are initiated, enforced & practised by all!

Let us encourage a habit of handwashing with soap under running water.
