Each country has its own specific security measures. You can ask your mentor about these measures before you leave your home country. You'll also get a briefing at the start of your volunteering about how to stay safe locally and what the current restrictions are. In general, however, we recommend that you wear masks on public transport and at your internship, and at all times in public. We also ask that you avoid crowded places – respecting social distancing is very important at this time. Our local teams know which hospitals and clinics volunteers should go to if they get sick or show symptoms.
