Fife Health & Social Care Partnership can confirm that two members of staff associated with the Path Medical Practice in Kirkcaldy have tested positive for COVID-19.

A number of close contacts have been identified and are currently self-isolating.

Following risk assessment by the Incident Management Team there are no wider concerns around risk to patients and the wider public and patients should be reassured that it is also safe to attend the surgery.

It is important that anyone experiencing the well-established symptoms of COVID-19, such as a high temperature; a new, continuous cough; or a loss or change to your sense of smell or taste, arranges to be tested using the UK Government Citizens’ Portal at: https://www.nhs.uk/ask-for-a-coronavirus-test or by calling 0800 028 2816.

A local online support hub has been created to provide information on testing for COVID-19, and updates on the pandemic. Visit: https://coronavirus.nhsfife.org/
