MORE RESTRICTIONS ON HOSPITAL VISITORS

There are new restrictions on visitors to St Mary's Hospital in Newport. It is because of new cases of a gastro-enteritis infection, which the hospital says have come in from outside. From 3 January, visiting will only be allowed between 2:30 and 4pm and between 6:30 and 8pm. Only immediate family may visit, when it is absolutely necessary. Packages can be taken in sealed packages to reception.
