Social distancing, which is currently in place, means separating yourself from other people as much as possible when you're in public places, and avoiding crowded places. Practically, you should:
- Keep a distance of 1.5 metres between yourself and others
- Don't shaking hands, hug or kissing other people
- Avoid visiting vulnerable people, such as those in aged care facilities or hospitals, infants, or people with compromised immune systems due to illness or medical treatment.
