Travellers who have visited affected areas should monitor their health for seven days after the visit. If you develop a flu-like illness with cough, sore throat, runny nose, headache or muscle aches, within seven days you should:
- Check your symptoms.
- Limit contact with other people.
- Cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when you cough or sneeze and dispose of the tissue promptly.
- Wash hands with soap and water.
- Keep hard surfaces (e.g. door handles, countertops) clean using a normal cleaning solution.
