#coronavirus Coronavirus
I am the manager of a GP practice in Barnet. Although the picture is changing everyday we are advising patients with symptoms consistent with the virus like a new persistent cough and or a fever to stay at home and self isolate for seven days.
If your condition worsens or you feel like you need advice go to the NHS website
111.nhs.uk/covid-19
Or call 111. But they are overwhelmed at the moment and I'm hearing call back times up to twelve hours.
If you are concerned about the virus in conjunction with an on going respiratory condition like COPD or Asthma then I would make a telephone appointment with your GP.
Currently GPs do not have testing kits or anything they cam prescribe to help with the virus. Please do not visit your GP surgery unless asked to by the surgery.
For most people symptoms will be mild and will pass.
Please wash your hands properly and often and try not to touch your face. Cough and sneeze into a tissue and throw it away as soon as possible.
