Many of Guernsey’s services working on the Covid-19 response are experiencing high numbers of calls and emails.
To help ensure Guernsey’s professionals are able to work, please only contact the relevant service for your circumstances – please follow these guidelines:
Possible contacts of a positive case
If you think you are the contact of a positive case, DO NOT call. Contact tracers will contact you, if you are a genuine contact.
COVID-19 symptoms
If you have COVID-19 related symptoms please call the clinical helpline on 01481 756938 or 01481 756969. Phone lines are busy at times but please wait and call back again. Please do not call or email Public Health directly if you find these numbers are engaged.
Questions about lockdown rules and other non-clinical questions
If you have questions about what you can and can’t do during lockdown, please call the non-clinical helpline on 01481 717118 or email covid19enquiries@gov.gg
Ship and Crown between 18th and 20th January
If you were in the Ship and Crown pub or Crow’s Nest restaurant between the 18th and 20th January, please email testresults@gov.gg. Please DO NOT call, you will be contacted if necessary.
Emergency healthcare
If you need healthcare or treatment for another reason, please still contact your GP or call an ambulance or attend the Emergency Department as you normally would.
Financial support
If you need financial support for yourself, your family, your business or your employees, these details will be released during this week. The STates of Guernsey will make a further announcement on Tuesday 26th January.
We know that people will generally feel concerned, and will feel a need to do something. But please do not call or email unless you genuinely need to, and please direct your call or email to the appropriate area as set out above, as this will help the teams work faster to keep the community safe.
