Health Minister Steven Miles said this morning it was important that people in the southeast wore masks when they could not socially distance.

“If you are in a place in the southeast where you cannot be physically distant please consider wearing a mask,” he said.

“It’s the best way to keep yourself safe and the others around you safe.”
