Advice issued ahead of winter flu season
Anyone with cold or flu symptoms should stay indoors and avoid other people to avoid spreading the illness, even if it's not coronavirus.
That's the advice from the Island's director of public health ahead of the winter flu season.
Only those with a temperature above 37.8°C, a new persistent cough or a loss of taste need to contact 111 for a Covid-19 consultation.
While those with sore throats or runny noses don't need a coronavirus test, Dr Henrietta Ewart says such illnesses can easily be spread:
Peel bar impacted by bus strikes
Care funding reform report delayed following ministerial change
Charity plans baby loss memorial garden at Noble's Hospital
New rights for neonatal care leave and carer's leave on the way
