A First Aider may come into contact with people of unknown medical history/symptoms and therefore there is a possible risk of cross infection when administering First Aid, including that of coronavirus, unless precautions are taken.
These precautions could include additional PPE and handwashing, the use of face coverings by the injured or unwell person and the elimination of first aid activities likely to generate respirable aerosol, or increase the risk of skin or hand contamination.
