A question for those members in the UK. I have not heard anything from my Haematologist/Hospital Trust on what we should do if we suspect that we might have the Coronavirus. Have others heard from their Trust/Haematologist? For example, do we call 111 or our treatment cancer unit.
Information from your Hospital Trust on Corona... - CLL Support
Information from your Hospital Trust on Coronavirus and action to be taken if you feel unwell.

Follow the NHS and Public Health Advice and phone 111 to start with but I think I would also let my unit know.
It appears that people with COVID-19 become poorly quite quickly starting with a temperature. Plenty of advice on line. nhs.uk/conditions/coronavir...

I do think, given our compromise immune systems, that we should make contact with the unit, but have they received any instructions on how we should proceed!
I don't think it would be any different to any other report of temperature or concern to your team. Are you thinking that they should have set up a special helpline or something?

I just contacted my consultant team to ask this question. Hopefully I will get a reply soon.
