Actions on returning from China or if you have had close contact with someone that has returned from China
If you have returned from anywhere in Hubei province, including Wuhan, in the last 14 days:
- stay indoors and avoid contact with other people as you would with other flu viruses. You can find more information about how to do this
- call NHS 111 to inform them of your recent travel to the area
- PLEASE DO NOT VISIT THE SURGERY.
If you have lived with or had close contact (within 2 metres for 15 minutes of more) with a confirmed case of 2019-nCoV, you should contact NHS 111 for further advice.
If you have returned from China and you are not unwell at the moment, you do not need to be in hospital. It is better for you to stay in familiar surroundings if you can. If you do become unwell, call NHS 111 immediately in order for you to be assessed by an appropriate specialist in hospital, as quickly as possible.
Your family do not need to take any precautions or make any changes to their own activities.
It is not necessary to wear a face mask
