19.01.2022 The soap you use does not have to be antibacterial. Regular soap will protect you if you wash your hands properly. COVID-19, like many other viruses, is he...ld together by a lipid (fatty) membrane. Washing with soap will remove the fat that sits around the virus particles and destroy it. How to wash your hands properly: Use soap and running water wet hands thoroughly and lather with soap (any soap!) rub hands together for 20 seconds as you wash them, creating a good lather pay attention to the backs of hands, wrists, between fingers and under fingernails rinse hands well under running water dry hands with a single use disposable paper towel or a clean towel. *When you cannot access soap and water, or your hands arent visibly soiled, you can use alcohol based sanitiser.

14.01.2022 As there is currently no vaccine or specific drug for COVID-19, the only known way to reduce the spread is through protective measures, such as practicing good ...hygiene, isolating suspected and confirmed cases, and by social distancing. Slowing the spread of COVID-19 has been termed flattening the curve. So how do protective measures help to flatten the curve and what does this mean? The health advice and protective measures in place for COVID-19 will help our community slow the spread and the demand on hospitals, giving the health system more time to prepare and manage the outbreak. Heres just a few of the things SA Health is doing: Weve introduced new legislation so we can provide a more rapid and timely response to public health risks Weve opened dedicated clinics and drive-through collection centres to ease pressure on EDs and GPs, and more are planned to open. Were launching a broad public awareness campaign about good hygiene practices and social distancing. Were also investigating ways we can increase capacity through private sector partnerships.

01.01.2022 We are prepared for a potential coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic spreading to South Australia. People should be alert, but not alarmed. Ongoing research ...and evidence suggests that COVID-19 presents as a mild illness in the majority of cases, with fever and cough being the most commonly reported symptoms. Severe illness and fatalities occur more often in people who are older, have chronic conditions (e.g. cardiovascular disease, diabetes, hypertension) or are immunocompromised (e.g. cancer, renal disease). Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people may also be at increased risk. Our hospitals are ready and prepared to respond. We have opened a COVID-19 clinic at the RAH and are planning more across metro SA. These clinics will test and treat patients outside of Emergency Departments. There is no need to stockpile food or toilet paper. However, you may want to have a few weeks of essential items such as regular medications in case you become unwell and cannot leave your home except to seek medical treatment. If you are well, you do not need to wear a mask unless you have been advised to do so by a medical provider. Surgical masks in the community are only helpful in preventing people who are suspected or have COVID-19 from spreading it to others. We all have a part to play in reducing the risk of getting sick and stopping the spread of infections: Stay home from work and school if you are unwell (e.g. dont go shopping or use public transport until you are well). Avoid contact with others if you are sick (particularly vulnerable people such as older persons and people with chronic medical conditions). If others are sick, keep your distance from them as much as possible (at least 1.5 metres), avoid close contact such as shaking hands, hugging, kissing. Wash hands regularly, particularly after going to the toilet, blowing your nose or handling used tissues. Cover coughs and sneezes with a clean tissue or your elbow. Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth, or handling food, until you have washed your hands. Wipe down frequently touched surfaces.
