If you suspect you may have COVID-19:

• Use the 111 online coronavirus service to find out what to do next (it’s a few simple questions and then tells you what to do).
• Do not go to a GP surgery, pharmacy or hospital.

In Scotland, call your GP or NHS 24 on 111 out of hours. In Northern Ireland, call 0300 200 7885
