Message from AngajukKâk, Joe Dicker

It is apparent that there are a lot of residents are still not following the social distancing guidelines set out by both the Provincial and Federal Government.

It is critical that social distancing be followed for the safety of the community.

The elderly, young children, people with weak immune systems and pregnant women are at high risk when it comes to COVID-19.

There should not be anyone in your home who does not live there.

No big family meals, No birthday parties, No gatherings including drinking with friends, No visitors whatsoever.

People are required to stay at least 2 meters or 6 feet apart.

If you are going out on the land social distancing still needs to be practiced.

You should not be spending time in cabins with people other than those from your household.

Wash your hands regularly for at least 20 seconds.

Avoid touching your face, Stay home if you’re sick.

If you need to pick up groceries do so on your own, do not bring children.

It is so important to follow these guidelines to make sure Nain stays as healthy as we possibly can, you can report those who fail to comply with the guidelines at www.gov.nl.ca/covid-19.
