Act like you've got it
Stay home to save lives
The best way to limit the spread of coronavirus is to act like you've got it and stay at home as much as possible.
You should only be travelling for essential purposes and exercise. By making unnecessary journeys you could be unknowingly spreading the virus.
When travelling on public transport it is crucial you wear a face covering at all times. Try to walk or cycle instead where possible, especially for local journeys.
