I hope everyone is as well as they can be

I was just wondering how people deal with the cold?

  • Hi again  …..

    Rest and sleep.

    Drink plenty of water (fruit juice or squash mixed with water is OK) to avoid dehydration.

    Gargle salt water to soothe a sore throat.

    If you have a high temperature or you do not feel well enough to do your normal activities, try to stay at home and avoid contact with other people until you feel better.

    I was given this simple rule for keeping eye on infections developing…… If my temperature is 37.5°C, repeat in one hour. If my temperature has increased, whether I feel unwell or not, I should call my clinical team, GP or call 111 during the weekend or out of hours,
