    The government has issued an updated list of those most ‘at risk’ if they contract the Coronavirus disease.

    In yesterday’s first daily update by the Prime Minister Boris Johnson, pregnant woman were added to the ‘vulnerable’ list. Public Health England chief medical officer Chris Whitty said those on the list should stay at home for 12 weeks.

    The total number of people in Wales who have tested positive for Coronavirus currently stand at 124, after a further 30 people were diagnosed. It has also been announced that a 68 year old man has become the first patient in Wales known to have died from Coronavirus.

    The government has urged everyone to do what they can to stop Coronavirus from spreading. Boris Johnson urged people to avoid the ‘office, pubs and travel’ to help minimise the risk to themselves and others.
