COVID-19 - IMPORTANT MESSAGE FOR PATIENTS:

Click here to read a personal message from Dr Jude.

Do not leave home if you, or someone you live with, has any of the following Coronavirus symptoms:

• A high temperature
• A new, continuous cough
• A loss of, or change to, your sense of smell or taste

If you have Coronavirus symptoms you should:

1. Isolate: as soon as you experience Coronavirus symptoms, medical advice is clear: you must self-isolate for at least 10 days from when your symptoms started.  Anyone else in your household must self-isolate for 10 days from when you started having symptoms or if you do not have symptoms, from the date your test was taken.
2. Test: order a test immediately at nhs.uk/coronavirus or call 119 if you have no internet access.
3. Results: If your test is positive, you must complete the remainder of your self-isolation. Anyone in your household must also complete self-isolation for 10 days from when you started having symptoms (or the date of your test if you do not have symptoms). If your test is negative, you and other household members no longer need to self-isolate. 
4. Share contacts: If you test positive for Coronavirus, the NHS test and trace service will send you a text or email alert or call you with instructions of how to share details of people with whom you have had close, recent contact and places you have visited. It is important that you respond as soon as possible so that appropriate advice can be given to those who need it. You will be told to do this online via a secure website or you will be called by a contract tracer.
