People who are at higher risk of severe illness from COVID-19 should seek testing and treatment early and are advised to make a treatment plan with their GP for access to testing and if required, for antiviral medicines.
Remember, get tested if you have any COVID-19 or respiratory symptoms and stay home until symptoms resolve. If you need to leave home, wear a face mask and avoid high risk settings.
