The UK Health Secretary Matt Hancock has now released a statement outlining the
Government’s position on the Coronavirus outbreak.
The Government have stated that although the risk level to the general public is still classed as ‘moderate’ the UK faces a “serious and imminent threat”.
During this statement, Matt Hancock described new powers that can forcibly quarantine people for their own safety, as an “effective means of delaying and preventing further transmission”.
Arrowe Park Hospital in Merseyside and Kents Hill Park Conference Centre in Milton Keynes have been designated as ‘isolation’ facilities. The last of the British nationals have been transported from China to Milton Keynes after arriving on a Government plane in Brize Norton on Sunday 9th February.
The official death toll has risen to over 1000, and the number of confirmed cases amongst British people has doubled to eight. More than 40,000 people have tested positive for this new strand of the virus, named 2019-nCoV, since the outbreak began in Wuhan, China in December.
With the NHS stating that they are well-equipped to deal with a pandemic, following robust infection control measures, it is important that the public takes steps to protect themselves from infection.
