CALL FIRST! ALWAYS CALL FIRST!
If You Have Life Threatening Symptoms (bluish lips/difficulty breathing):
- CALL 911 (or your emergency number if you are outside the US)
- Inform the operator of your symptoms and that you think you have COVID-19, this allows emergency personnel to protect themselves while they save you.
If You Suspect You Have COVID-19:
- CALL your doctor, do NOT go in until you call to receive instructions
- If you do not have a doctor: CALL your health department, local hospital, or the COVID-19 helpline that your local government has set up. They will give you instructions on where to go.
- How do you find these numbers? Google is your friend. You can also dial 411 in the US. I will work on compiling a list of numbers and uploading those soon.
