The guide continues to say that "Video dates, phone chats, sexting, online chat rooms and group cam rooms are ways to engage in sexual activity with no chance of spreading COVID-19."
If you do want to be intimate with a partner, the government says you should have one or a few partners and be sure to talk to them about precautions and who they've been in contact with.
There is also a list of steps you can take to protect yourself during sexual intercourse.
The steps include washing your body before and after, wearing a mask, avoiding or limiting kissing, not being face-to-face, and using barriers like "glory holes."
They also advise using protection and, of course, washing your hands.
Stay safe out there, love birds.
