Kings College Hospital Coronavirus Outbreak

[HerstoryInTheMaking]

There has been an outbreak within the hospital, two patients in two separate wards were diagnosed a week after being admitted. They were not quarantined but put in a normal ward. There are reports that the wards have been locked down.

This is my local hospital wondering if anyone knows anything as to what is happening, seems to be being kept hush about.

Blimey, that would be terrible news.

I suspect this is happening all over the place, not sure what lead to these people being treated but I'm pretty sure now we're moving into the next phase they may be testing a wider cohort of people and looking less at contact.

When they do numbers are likely to shoot up, NOT cos necessarily lots more people are being infected but more they are just being discovered. It is likely that transmission within the UK had been going on for longer than they realise purely add it's taken a while for hotspots to be mapped (like with Italy).
