Take care of yourself this summer!

This year, you need to be careful with the sun, the heat and the coronavirus. We’ve got to be twice as careful this summer! Take care to make sure you’re not affected by sunstroke or COVID-19. This summer, more than ever, follow these recommendations:

• Wear a face mask
• Wash your hands with soap or sanitizer
• Keep a safe distance of 2 metres away from people
• Don’t share utensils, drinks or food
• Drink water often
• Use sun cream
• Shade yourself with a hat or cap
• Keep cool

If you go to the beach…

We can now go for a swim or a walk or play sports in compliance with the guidelines set out by the health authorities:

• Keep a safe distance of 2 metres away from people, both on the beach and in the sea
• Try to go when there are fewer people
• Don’t stay too long and let other people have their turn
• Avoid going in large groups (groups of up to 20 people are permitted)
• Find out in advance about the limits to the number of people, parking or the time you can spend there

Are you planning on taking a flight? If you are, make sure you stay safe:

• Don’t turn up at the airport more than 90 minutes before your flight
• If you’re travelling alone, don’t travel to the airport with anyone
• Always keep a safe distance from other people and always wear a face mask
• Avoid crowds
• Bear in mind that there may be extra safety measures, including frequent temperature controls and disinfecting
• When on board the plane, drink lots of water; the dry atmosphere can affect the mucous membrane
• During the flight, try not to move from your seat too often

And remember…

If you don’t feel well at any point or have any of the symptoms of COVID-19, call 061 Salut Respon or the number for the local health authority or healthcare centre.
