Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, the safety of our neighbours has been our top priority. Now with the availability of a vaccine fast-approaching, we want to remind you of the tools on Nextdoor to ensure that you are connecting with and sharing COVID-19 information that is accurate and up to date. 

**COVID-19 Information Reminder: **When you create a post related to COVID-19 or the vaccine, a pop-up window will encourage you to check that the information in your post reflects guidance from public health officials, like the [Department of Health Australia](https://www.health.gov.au/news/health-alerts/novel-coronavirus-2019-ncov-health-alert?utm_source=health.gov.au&utm_medium=redirect&utm_campaign=digital_transformation&utm_content=health-topics/novel-coronavirus-2019-ncov) and the [World Health Organisation](https://www.who.int/emergencies/diseases/novel-coronavirus-2019) (WHO).

**COVID-19 Search Results: **When you search for COVID-19 or the vaccine on Nextdoor, you’ll receive a pop-up announcement that directs you to information directly from public health officials that you can trust.

**Misinformation Reporting**: If you believe you see misinformation related to COVID-19 or the vaccine, please follow [these steps](https://help.nextdoor.com/s/article/Nextdoor-s-misinformation-policy?language=en_AU) to report it so that our team can review and take the appropriate action.

We continue to be inspired every day by how neighbours are helping each other around the globe. Now more than ever, we need the strength of our neighbourhoods, and neighbours like you.
