If you plan to hand out treats WA Health recommends:
- If you have any symptoms of COVID-19 over Halloween, stay home, don’t receive Halloween visitors and get tested immediately.
- If you are self-quarantining or self-isolating, don’t answer the door to trick-or-treaters and don’t participate/encourage door knockers to approach your door.
- Make it a front-yard event, not at the front-door of your house. Keep your celebrations outdoors and get creative in decorating the front yard.
- Only hand out individually-wrapped treats.
- If you wish to avoid people knocking on your door consider putting up a sign that says ‘We are home but due to COVID-19, we are distancing’.
- Remember, the 2m2 rule - you must have 2m2 available for each person in any area in which you are entertaining.
If you plan to trick-or-treat WA Health recommends:
- If you have any symptoms of COVID-19 this Halloween, stay home and give trick-or-treating a miss this year. Get tested immediately.
- Try to avoid well-known ‘treat streets’ that attract crowds.
- Celebrate outside, don’t go to people’s front door.
- Stay 1.5 meters away from people you don’t live with.
- Only take treats that are individually wrapped.
- Don’t share costumes or costume face masks.
- Carry hand sanitiser with you and use it often, especially before touching food and/or eating.
