Inaccurate information circulating regarding special ‘rescue packs’ for patients with pre-existing respiratory conditions

Please do not contact your GP practice for a rescue pack. You should continue to manage your condition in the usual way and if you feel you have symptoms of COVID-19, go to https://111.nhs.uk/covid-19 before doing anything else.
