Per RSA NICD:: Seek care right away if difficulty breathing, other severe symptoms. Seek testing if sick, PLUS known COVID-19 contact, or travel to high risk country, or been in facility treating people with COVID-19, or severe pneumonia of unknown cause. Call 0800 029 999 for test. If sick or possibly exposed (not both), stay home. Seek consultation if sick. If known exposure & not sick, self-isolate 14 days.
