Hello Colleagues,
Media coverage in the UK of this new Coronavirus seems to have stepped up considerably. Obviously, we await confirmation from the Emergency Committee of WHO as to whether it will be declared a Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC) or not and we may hear today about that.
