Your actions matter. Make informed choices to keep yourself and others safe.

Avoid:

  • closed spaces
  • crowded places
  • close contact

Always:

  • stay home and away from others if you feel sick
  • follow local public health advice
  • stick to a small and consistent social circle

Low risk

  • Getting mail and packages
  • Restaurant takeout
  • Grocery and retail shopping
  • Community/outdoor parks and beaches
  • Camping
  • Running/hiking/biking solo or at a distance from others
  • Driving Car (solo or with household contacts)
  • Socially distanced picnic
  • Going for a walk
  • Playing “distanced” sports outside (tennis/golf)
  • Backyard BBQ with your ‘bubble’ contacts

Medium risk

  • Hair salon/ barbershop
  • Outdoor restaurant/patio
  • Medical/health appointments/dentist
  • School/camp/daycare
  • Hotel/BnB
  • Public pools
  • Taxi/ride shares
  • Malls/museums/galleries
  • Working in an office
  • Weddings and funerals
  • Playing on play structures
  • Visiting elderly or at-risk family/friends in their home
  • Movie theatre

High risk

  • Bars and nightclubs
  • Crowded indoor restaurant/buffet
  • Gyms and athletic studios
  • Amusement parks
  • Cruise ships and resorts
  • High contact sports with shared equipment (football/basketball)
  • Hugging, kissing or shaking hands
  • Conferences
  • Large religious/cultural gatherings
  • Music concerts, or places where people are singing or shouting
  • Watching sporting events in arenas and stadiums
  • Sexual activity with new people
  • Casinos
  • Indoor party
  • Crowded public transportation (bus, subway)

Activities from least risky to most risky

  • Home alone or with household contacts
  • Outdoors with housemates or social bubble
  • Outdoors with physical distancing
  • Outdoor/indoor short amount of time
  • Indoors large groups long time
  • Indoors/outdoors crowded longer time

Risk levels

Risk levels may vary based on your ability to physically distance, the use of non-medical masks by you and others, and other measures that may decrease risk. Some examples of low, medium, high risk are provided above but depend on whether or not proper public health measures are followed. Risk level for exposure is impacted by closed spaces, prolonged exposure time, crowds, forceful exhalation (yelling, singing, coughing).
