What do you need to do to help stop the spread of #COVID19 ?

Our new guidance brings together existing info on social distancing, hygiene, face coverings, ventilation & other measures into one document.

Even if you've had your #COVID19 vaccine, it's important that you continue to follow national restrictions.

We don't yet know if the vaccine prevents transmission - you could potentially still carry and transmit the virus to other vulnerable people, even if you are protected.

Thank you to everyone who contributed with their hard work to the #AntimicrobialStewardship initiatives across the Trust and beyond in 2020 and well done for receiving your awards 👏👏 Your efforts are appreciated!
