We live in a very social village. Our pubs are now closed and that is for a good reason. The virus spreads most often in small groups who spend time together - if you have a house party, family gatherings, friends around to visit - you are exposing yourself and everyone involved to significant risk. Most importantly, because you can be infectious for days with no symptoms, you could very easily infect a number of others and they do the same and so on - that is how it is spreading so quickly.
We all have a responsibility to protect each other.
If you have any doubt about your symptoms, then everyone is your home must self-isolate - that means do not have any contact directly with anyone outside your home. If you need something, it is not OK to nip out for a few minutes to the Spar or petrol station - you would be endangering the whole community. Instead, ask for help.
Please don’t go out unless absolutely necessary and in accordance with government guidance, STAY AT HOME and SAVE LIVES please!
