COVID-19

Rules and restrictions

There are no COVID-19 rules or restrictions in Scotland. We are now living with COVID-19 as one of a number of respiratory infections. 

There are things you can do to stay well and protect others:

  • try to stay at home if you have symptoms
  • if you have symptoms and do need to go out, wear a well-fitting face covering
  • get the vaccine if offered to give you the best possible protection
  • wash your hands regularly
  • meet in well-ventilated spaces

Symptoms

Symptoms of coronavirus include:

  • high temperature, fever or chills
  • feeling generally unwell
  • continuous cough
  • loss of, or change in, your normal sense of taste or smell
  • shortness of breath
  • unexplained tiredness, lack of energy
  • muscle aches or pains that are not due to exercise
  • not wanting to eat or not feeling hungry
  • headache that’s unusual or longer lasting than usual
  • sore throat, stuffy or runny nose
  • diarrhoea
  • feeling sick or being sick

You might continue to have a cough or feel tired after your other symptoms have improved. This does not mean that you’re still infectious.

How to help your symptoms

Non-urgent advice: Do

  • drink fluids like water to keep yourself hydrated
  • get plenty of rest
  • wear loose, comfortable clothing – don’t try to make yourself too cold
  • take over-the-counter medications like paracetamol – always follow the manufacturer’s instructions

Antibiotics will not relieve your symptoms or speed up your recovery.

Urgent advice: Speak to your GP if:

  • your symptoms worsen
  • you’re concerned about your symptoms
  • you have symptoms that you can no longer manage at home
  • you’re worried about your child, especially if they’re under 2 years

If your GP is closed, phone 111. In an emergency phone 999.
