Get tested for COVID-19
If you have symptoms of COVID-19 you should get tested.
Symptoms are:
- a high temperature
- a new, continuous cough
- a loss or change to your sense of smell or taste
Book a test online or by calling 119.
Walk-through testing sites are in Aylesbury and High Wycombe and Mobile Testing Units pop up regularly across Buckinghamshire.
Getting tested if you do not have symptoms
Rapid testing, also called lateral flow testing, is a fast and free way for people without symptoms to find out if they have the virus.
Anybody who needs to leave home to work or volunteer can book a rapid test.
If you test positive (self-isolation)
If you test positive for COVID-19, you must stay at home and self-isolate immediately, even if you don’t have symptoms. Your household needs to isolate too.
If you’re unsure what you can and can’t do, we offer help if you’re self-isolating.
For financial support, you may be able to apply for a payment for self-isolating (Test and Trace Support Payment).
