In a large community such as ours, we all need to do what we can to minimise the spread of infectious illnesses. Remember your student healthcare 1,2,3:
|
- Register with a local doctor
- Make sure your vaccinations are up to date
- Fever, aches, coughs? Learn the tell-tale signs of infectious illnesses
|
If you do feel unwell, let someone know but avoid close contact with people to prevent spreading any infection. Seek medical help if you’re worried. See our student healthcare web page for more information and check your department handbook for what to do if you’re ill and can’t attend teaching sessions.
