Feeling feverish or exhausted? With multiple respiratory viruses on the rise in the UK, it’s harder than ever to tell them apart. COVID-19, flu, and RSV can look and feel very similar—so making the right decision for your health means knowing the differences and similarities.
Symptoms often overlap. If you’re in the UK and not sure what’s causing your illness, you’re not alone. Treatment and risks differ—so does the advice about isolation and contact with others. Find NHS advice here.
Our At-Home Respiratory PCR Panel Test checks for all three viruses at once, using a painless self-swab. PCR technology identifies viral genetic material, providing accurate answers to help inform your next steps—whether that’s staying home, seeking treatment, or returning to normal activity.
Don’t let uncertainty keep you from getting the right care. Order your at-home respiratory PCR panel or book an in-person consultation at Mayfield Clinic for rapid reassurance.
You can buy a home test kit through our product page, or schedule an in-person test at Mayfield Clinic for the same respiratory PCR panel.
High-risk individuals include the elderly, those with long-term health conditions (like asthma or diabetes), pregnant women, and anyone with a weakened immune system.
To help prevent illness, wash your hands, wear a mask in crowded places during peak season, stay home if unwell, and get vaccinated if eligible.
