Abstract
Description
COVID-19 is an epidemic of a viral respiratory tract infection that ranges from a mild to life-threatening illness. Identification and management of Contacts and Cases is a key part of limiting spread. The disease cannot be differentiated reliably from other viral respiratory tract infections on clinical grounds. This document provides concise guidance for GPs on some issues that may arise when advising on respiratory tract infection in the context of COVID-19.
