Patients were afraid to attend the PHC, and GPs and nurses were instructed to avoid as much physical contact as possible with them. Separated areas were created to attend patients with respiratory symptoms and healthcare professionals were instructed to adopt the highest measures of safety and protection. GPs advised patients to either return home (with or without COVID-19 diagnosis) or referred them to the hospital if they presented severe symptoms and signs. PHC professionals took care of this population by detecting infections, recommending isolation, or referring patients to hospital if necessary.	./cache/cord-303234-t95z02g9.txt	./txt/cord-303234-t95z02g9.txt
