Rise In Number Of Isle Of Wight Coronavirus Cases

The number of confirmed cases of coronavirus on the Isle of Wight has risen by three. The figures, from Public Health England, now stand at 149. Yesterday, that number was at 146. It is likely the introduction of a testing centre to the Island has contributed towards the rise. As of today (Wednesday), the number of people who have died with coronavirus at St Mary’s Hospital remains at 29. 25 people have recovered and been discharged from St Mary's Hospital, according to the Isle of Wight NHS Trust. Do not leave your home if you have coronavirus symptoms Do not leave your home if you have either: a high temperature – this means you feel hot to touch on your chest or back (you do not need to measure your temperature) a new, continuous cough – this means coughing a lot for more than an hour, or 3 or more coughing episodes in 24 hours (if you usually have a cough, it may be worse than usual) To protect others, do not go to places like a GP surgery, pharmacy or hospital. Stay at home. Use the 111 online coronavirus service to find out what to do.
