LlyodsPharmacy reopens its Brighton pharmacy after a coronavirus outbreak

On the 10th February 2020, LlyodsPharmacy closed its County Oak Medical Centre in Brighton due to a case of coronavirus (2019-nCoV.) However, following a thorough clean throughout the facility, Llyods’ medical centre has reopened. Consequently, the NHS and Brighton and Hove City Council are working closely in ensuring that the locals aren’t at jeopardy and the NHS boss has announced that people may need to start self-isolating themselves to prevent the spread.

Lloyds Pharmacy stated: “All equipment and surfaces have now been thoroughly cleaned and patients can access the pharmacy as normal. The protection of our patients and pharmacy team is – and always will be – our top priority.”

Brighton and Hove Commissioning Group stated: “PHE is prioritising contacting people who might have had close and sustained contact with the individual as a precaution to provide them with health advice about any symptoms in case they become unwell.”
