Things to think about before going out

you be indoors or outdoors?
- Indoor spaces have less ventilation and might be harder to keep people apart.
- What’s
the length of time that you will be interacting with people?

- Spending more time with people increases their risk of becoming infected if there is any chance that you may already be infect.
