NHS England have updated their Infection Control guidance and patients no longer have to wear a face mask unless they have respiratory or Covid symptoms, or if they prefer to wear one as their choice.
Respiratory or Covid symptoms are:
- continuous cough
- high temperature, fever or chills
- loss of, or change in, your normal sense of taste or smell
- sore throat, stuffy or runny nose
- diarrhoea, feeling sick or being sick
Thank you for your support and understanding in following the NHS Infection Control guidelines throughout Covid and to date.
