COVID-19: Helping Yourself and Others
March 18, 2020
During this uncertain time, it’s important for all of us to do what we can to ensure that our healthcare resources are prioritized for those who really need them. To support our front line healthcare professionals and protect the health of our communities, we hope you will join us in taking steps to limit unnecessary testing and actively share information to enable others to self-monitor.
The BC Health Authority and Telus have provided online assessment tools to help you determine whether further testing may be necessary. You can find them at the links below:

And
Telus Health COVID-19 Self-Assessment Tool
If you are tested and it turns out you have the virus, or you find out that you have been exposed, we encourage you to share that information with people you have been in contact with so that they may take their own steps to help contain further spread of the virus.
Together we can support our healthcare workers and each other to keep COVID-19 in check.
