JDCSA Policy Statement re Corona Virus Covid-19

(Issued Tues 17th March 2020)

We are all very well aware of the global implications of the current Corona Virus, COVID-19. It is very clear that the policy of “Social Distancing” is the most important action individuals and social groups and clubs can take at this time to get ahead of this virus. As a club it is important that we cooperate and be seen to be compliant in this regard.

Therefore the following policy statement has been issued by the JDCSA Executive Committee in the interests of all club members and the wider community. We are conscious of the general age group of club members and the vulnerability of those in the over 60 category.

The Executive Committee has therefore determined as follows:

1. We require non-attendance at any club events by members returning from overseas or if they know they may have had contact with infected persons within a previous 14-day period. Obviously similar action applies to members who are experiencing flu-like symptoms. This policy should be observed for as long as the current crisis continues or until further notice. Hand sanitation should be observed at all times.
2. The General Monthly Meetings of JDCSA will be cancelled for the months of April and May. A further statement will be issued in relation to future Monthly General Meeting during May.
3. All activities, meetings and events arranged by Registers will also be cancelled for the months of April and May.
4. We anticipate that the Executive Committee will continue to meet monthly to monitor and oversee club events and activities via ZOOM / digital conferencing and/or email conversations. We will be constantly monitoring developments along with any Government instructions and will issue further updates as, and if, appropriate.
5. Basic protective measures against the new Corona Virus as issued by official health organisations include:
   1. Stay aware of the latest information on the COVID-19 outbreak, available on the WHO website and through your national and local public health authority and media.
   2. Take care of your health and protect others by doing the following:
      1. Wash your hands frequently and use hand sanitiser,
      2. In public gatherings maintain at least 1.5 metre distance between yourself and anyone who is coughing or sneezing.
      3. Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth
      4. Covering your mouth and nose with your bent elbow or tissue when you cough or sneeze.
      5. Avoid physical contact such as handshakes etc.
