England’s Weston General Hospital Monday ceased new admissions after receiving a top number of COVID patients. “As with any hospital, the number of patients with COVID-19 will frequently change as people are admitted and discharged. We currently have a high number of patients with COVID-19 in Weston General Hospital,” hospital director Dr. William Oldfield affirmed. According to University Hospitals Bristol and Weston NHS Foundation Trust, this is a precautionary measure to prevent the virus among health care workers and patients. Admission ceasing started on May 25, at 8 am. So far, the United Kingdom registered 259,559 positive cases and 36,793 deaths. Sanitary authorities have not offered a recoveries figure.
