If you think you may have the symptoms of swine flu you should:

  • 1) Stay at home.
  • 2) Visit www.direct.gov.uk/pandemicflu OR call 0800 1 513 513 and check your symptoms.
  • 3) Try some self-care like taking paracetamol and other over the counter remedies. Get lots of rest and drink plenty of fluids.
  • 4) If you are not getting any better, call the National Pandemic Flu Service (NPFS) on 0800 1 513 100 or 0800 1 513 200 (Textphone)
  • 5) Contact your GP directly (rather than ringing the NPFS) 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; or
  • • your condition is still getting worse after seven days (five for a child).
