The situation regarding this viral strain continues to evolve rapidly and the latest information is available on https://www.gov.uk/guidance/wuhan-novel-coronavirus-information-for-the-public.
Currently we are advising any patients who potentially meet the criteria of returning from a listed country (at the time of publishing this includes mainland China, Thailand, Japan, Republic of Korea, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia or Macau in the last 14 days) and with flu like symptoms such as cough and fever, should stay indoors and phone 111 as they have the mechanisms to assess your condition and arrange testing if required.
