General advice from the Government about Coronavirus, including financial support, can be found here.
Symptoms of COVID-19 are:
- a high temperature – this means you feel hot to touch on your chest or back (you do not need to measure your temperature)
- a new, continuous cough – this means coughing a lot for more than an hour, or 3 or more coughing episodes in 24 hours (if you usually have a cough, it may be worse than usual)
- a loss or change to your sense of smell or taste – this means you've noticed you cannot smell or taste anything, or things smell or taste different to normal
If you have any of the symptoms above, stay at home and arrange to have a test to see if you have COVID-19, you should book a test.
If symptoms become unbearable you can access medical support by dialling NHS 111 or NHS 111 Online. After 10 days, if you still have a temperature you should continue to self-isolate and seek medical advice.
