Weston Hospital update - no new cases

North Somerset Council said today the hospital outbreak has increased the number of cases in North Somerset but there was no signs that this had resulted in a further spreading to the wider community.
The University Hospitals Bristol and Weston NHS Trust say there has been “no new cases" on non-COVID wards identified since new measures to control the outbreak were introduced.
No in-hospital transmissions, staff being re-tested.
“This would indicate no in-hospital transmission of the infection and continues to demonstrate that the actions being taken at the hospital are working and ensuring patients and staff remain as safe as possible." the trust added.
All staff are now being re-tested after around 6 per cent (or 102 out of 1,700) were infected with Covid-19. The hospital was forced to close to new patients on May 25.
