The Isle of Man to ready to respond to the Wuhan novel coronavirus (WN-CoV) should a potential case of the disease arrive here.
The Island takes its lead from Public Health England and the World Health Organisation, both of which are providing a flow of updated information, guidance and advice. It is a rapidly evolving situation as this is a ‘novel’ or new strain to humans, and evidence of human-to-human transmission of the virus continues to emerge.
The risk to the public is low and there are currently no confirmed cases in the UK. However, the Isle of Man health service has put in place a number of precautionary measures to assist anyone suspected of having the virus, and to protect the public. Information covering detection and diagnosis of possible cases is being shared with health care professionals along with infection prevention and control measures.
Staff at the airport and Sea Terminal are being prepared to assist travellers seeking advice if they are returning from an affected area of the world.
