Scientists comment on the potential of a second norovirus wave.
Professor Arlene Wellman MBE, Group Chief Nurse for St George’s, Epsom and St Helier, said:
“Once norovirus enters a hospital, it can rip through our wards like wildfire, making patients even sicker. We are doing everything we can to limit the spread, but you can help us.
“Hand sanitisers such as alcohol gel do not kill the bug – the simple act of good hand washing with soap and water can make all the difference between our beds being used to care for patients, or lying empty at a time when every bed is precious.”
