COVID-19 UPDATE
COVID-19 is an illness caused by the coronavirus and it is having a big impact globally.
Under the current pandemic, we all need to take extra care of ourselves and those around us, accepting that – for now – the way we go about our lives has changed a lot.
Contracting coronavirus can have devastating consequences. Some Aboriginal people are more at risk, including Elders, people with co-morbidities (health conditions such as diabetes, cardiovascular illness, cancer, and dementia), and those living in overcrowded conditions.
KEEPING YOU SAFE
Additional entry restrictions for the Anangu Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara (APY) Lands and the Maralinga Tjarutja (MT) Lands were introduced on 23 November 2021. This includes the requirement that anyone entering the APY or MT Lands must be fully vaccinated.
