A ward at Hereford County Hospital has been closed to visitors due to cases of diarrhoea and vomiting believed to be caused by Norovirus.

Visiting to Teme Ward at the hospital has been stopped to prevent the further spread of diarrhoea and vomiting which is affecting some patients.

As a precautionary measure, visiting to the adjacent respiratory amber ward has also been suspended due to the proximity of the two wards and the facilities they both share.
