"If in doubt, get tested": Health minister
Jo Seymour
Anyone in doubt about potentially coming into contact with the coronavirus should get themselves tested even though it could stress the health system, the Federal government has advised.
Health Minister Greg Hunt said the position was "very clear" _ if a person believed they may have come into contact with COVID-19 they should self isolate but also not hesitate to seek a test if they become concerned.
"If in doubt, get yourself tested, that's the important message," he said.
"Even though it can be a little bit of a stress on the system, we would rather people over test than under test."
Mr Hunt said Australia's chief medical officer Dr Brendan Murphy would be providing more health advice on Monday, but in principle people with flu symptoms needed to be vigilant.
"No country is immune, but Australia is deep in preparation, and already activation for making sure that people are protected," he said.
More than 105,000 people have now been infected with the disease across 95 countries and at least 3,600 have died.
Mr Hunt said Australians must rise to face the "challenges" presented by coronavirus and support nurses, medics and aged care workers trying to do their jobs.
"Our job, working with the states and territory … (and) working with the community, is to make sure that we are not just prepared, but that we are unified," he said. |
