Mild Symptoms

If I have mild symptoms, such as:

aches and pains
sore throat
dry cough
runny nose

I will manage these symptoms by:

getting enough rest
staying active (staying within my house and/or garden)
eating well
maintaining a good fluid intake
taking any medicines discussed with my GP (or other health provider)
taking paracetamol or ibuprofen for symptom relief.

I will continue to monitor and document my symptoms in the My daily symptom diary.

Moderate Symptoms

If I have any moderate symptoms, such as:

oxygen level of 93–94%*
respiratory rate of 20–30 breaths per minute*
temperature above 38 degrees*
vomiting or diarrhoea
mild breathlessness or a persistent cough
struggling to get out of bed, and feeling unusually tired and weak
coughing up blood
My daily symptom diary looking like it is tracking worse, rather than stable or better

I will contact my general practice for review as soon as possible. If they are unavailable, I will call the person/service listed in the ‘My care team’ section, or the National Coronavirus Helpline on 1800 020 080.
