“The contact-tracing team have begun informing direct contacts who have visited the ward in question, and as a precaution no further visitors will be permitted onto the relevant ward.
 
“The hospital continues to function as normal. Infection control measures have been implemented as a matter of course – managing COVID is not a new scenario for the hospital.
