Swine Flu Update 01/08/09

coldThe Tolsey Surgery has a strategy for dealing with potential cases in accordance with DOH guidelines.

SWINE FLU – Latest Information

 

The National Pandemic Flu Service has been launched in England.

If  you feel like you may have swine flu then call 0800 1 513 100 or visit the new website.

People who have swine flu symptoms will be given a unique access number and told where their nearest antiviral collection point is. They should then ask a flu friend - a friend or relative who doesn't have swine flu - to go and pick up their antivirals from their nearest antiviral collection point. The flu friend must show their own ID as well as that of the patient. The surgery has details of the nearest collection points.

 

Contact your doctor directly if:

You have a serious underlying illness

You are pregnant

You have a sick child under one year old

Your condition suddenly gets much worse

Your condition is still getting worse after 7 days (5 for a child)

Patients are not advised to go to their GP surgery, as it is important any spread is contained.
