Glastonbury Nub News is sharing the key messages on coping with the coronavirus outbreak.

Our easy-to-read guide has been compiled from Government-approved sources.

How to avoid catching or spreading coronavirus:

Do:

- wash your hands with soap and water often – do this for at least 20 seconds

- always wash your hands when you get home or into work and before you prepare food and eat

- use hand sanitiser gel if soap and water are not available

- cover your mouth and nose with a tissue or your sleeve (not your hands) when you cough or sneeze

- put used tissues in the bin immediately and wash your hands afterwards

- try to avoid close contact with people who are unwell

Don't:

- touch your eyes, nose or mouth if your hands are not clean

Self-isolate if you have coronavirus symptoms:

Stay at home for 7 days if you have either:

- a high temperature

- a new, continuous cough

Do not go to a GP surgery, pharmacy or hospital.

You do not need to contact 111 to tell them you're staying at home.

Use the NHS 111 online coronavirus service if:

- you feel you cannot cope with your symptoms at home

- your condition gets worse

- your symptoms do not get better after 7 days

Only call 111 if you cannot get help online.

Advice during self-isolation at home:

If you have coronavirus symptoms you must remain in your home.

Do:

- separate yourself from other people in your home and keep the door closed

- if you have to share a space, stay at least 2 metres (about 3 steps) away from other people and open a window

- sleep alone

- clean shared surfaces - such as in the bathroom and kitchen - every time you use them

- Double bag personal waste - such as tissues - in disposable rubbish bags and tie securely. Wait 72 hours before putting in the household waste collection bin

Don't:

- go to work, school, public areas, use public transport or taxis or go for a walk

- share your toothbrush, eating and drinking utensils, dishes, drinks, towels, washcloths or bed linen

- invite or allow visitors into your home - use the phone or social media

Treatment for coronavirus:

There is currently no specific treatment for coronavirus.

Drink water to keep yourself hydrated and use over-the-counter medications to help with some of your symptoms.

If seven days after the onset of symptoms you feel better and no longer have a high temperature you can return to your normal routine.
