Coronavirus UK: Prevention, Symptoms & latest advice from the Public Health England and the NHS

The Department of Health and Social Care and Public Health England have reported that so far, nine patients have tested positive of coronavirus in the UK. Trent Nursing Ltd cares for both its staff and service users, especially those who are vulnerable and at high risk due to a weakened immune system and the elderly. According to Public Health England here is crucial advice on ways to spot the symptoms, protect yourself and those around you and what to do if you have been in contact with an infected person.

What are the symptoms of coronavirus?
The main warning signs of coronavirus are:

• Coughing

• Fever

• Diarrhoea

• A high temperature

• Shortness of breath

• Dry cough

In serious cases, coronavirus can cause a very high fever, kidney failure and pneumonia.

How does coronavirus spread, and how can you protect yourself?
Since coronavirus is new , it is still not very clear on how coronavirus can spread from person to person. Similar viruses spread in cough droplets and through the air when infected people cough or sneeze, or through close personal contact such as hand shaking. It’s also possible to be infected by getting in contact or touching an object or surfaces with the virus on it and then touching your face before washing your hands thoroughly.

How to protect/prevent yourself and others, from the infection,

• Always wash your hands thoroughly and frequently

• Always avoid touching your face
• Be more vigilant about not touching surfaces in public places

What is the NHS advice?

If you have recently travelled to a high-risk area such as

• China

• Thailand

• Japan

• Republic of Korea

• Hong Kong

• Taiwan

• Singapore

• Malaysia

• Macau
or if you’ve been in contact with somebody infected, and you start to develop symptoms, you should contact NHS 111 with immediate effect for advice.
You should not go to the doctor or hospital, as if you have the virus, you may risk spreading it to others.
