Dear members,
We would like to advise all members that we are closely monitoring the progression of COVID-19 and any potential impacts on our community. While the spread of Coronavirus (COVID-19) is a concern, most people displaying symptoms such as cough, sore throat, fever or tiredness are most likely suffering with a cold or other respiratory illness and not the Coronavirus.
However, if you do experience any cold or flu symptoms, please take it upon yourself to have a few days away from our club until you're feeling better (just as you should if you have a regular cold or flu, because believe it or not, nobody wants that either!).
We encourage you all to follow simple hygiene guidelines (wash your hands, sneeze into your elbow and stay at home/seek medical attention if you are sick), and note that the best source of information regarding the outbreak can be found on State and Federal Department of Health webpages.
For those of you planning on travelling overseas, we encourage you to review the Smartraveller website and subscribe for updates.
Also, just as a precaution, if you have travelled overseas in the last month to the high risk countries listed at www.health.gov.au/covid19-travellers then please do not return to MYC for 14 days upon your return. If you have returned from one of the moderate risk countries, monitor your health for 14 days and self isolate if you experience any symptoms. If you believe you have had contact with a possible case of coronavirus in the last 21 days then obviously self isolate.
Thank you, stay safe
MYC Office
