A Welsh hospital has taken the decision to lift a ban on visitors - less than week after it was put in place to protect staff and patients against an increased risk of Covid-19 transmission.
Last Thursday (July 14) Hywel Dda University Health Board announced an immediate halt on visiting at Glangwili Hospital in Carmarthen following a formal review of coronavirus activity at the site.

This followed the same decision being applied to Withybush Hospital in Haverfordwest at the beginning of July. All visiting was paused at both hospitals apart from end-of-life visits and any considered necessary through agreement with the ward sister or charge nurse.
