The National Pandemic Flu Service
The National Pandemic Flu Service has been launched in England. If you are in England and feel like you may have swine flu, visit the new website by following this link , or call 0800 1 513 100 (0800 1 513 200 for textphone). People who have swine flu symptoms will be given a unique access number and told where their nearest antiviral collection point is. They should then ask a flu friend - a friend or relative who doesn't have swine flu - to go and pick up their antivirals. The flu friend must show their own ID as well as that of the patient.
