Coronavirus help and advice

The COVID-19 pandemic has changed but we understand it may still affect daily life, especially if you have, or are caring for someone, with cystic fibrosis. We worked with a panel of experts to answer some of the questions our community have asked. We will continue to update our website with the latest information.
