How can one deal with a viral infection?
What to do in the event that you are in direct contact with someone who has COVID-19 or if you have the virus yourself? You should then avoid going to high-risk environments. Nevertheless, there can be exceptions, like when you need immediate medical attention or treatment, such as in hospitals, residential care facilities for the elderly and disabled, or other healthcare settings.
Using face masks at our healthcare facility
There is no law in Western Australia that requires people to wear face masks. Nevertheless, masks could be mandatory in some healthcare settings, including general practices, hospitals, and institutions for the elderly and disabled. Before you go, be sure you contact the institution. At our pet hospital, we encourage our staff and visitors to wear face masks.
