Hospital serving Boris Johnson’s constituency closed to emergencies after covid outbreak
A hospital serving Boris Johnson’s constituency has closed to emergency admissions due to a coronavirus outbreak. Some 70 staff members are isolating after the outbreak at Hillingdon Hospital in west London.
The hospital serves the Prime Minister’s Uxbridge and South Ruislip constituency. Mr Johnson sent a video message to staff at the hospital to mark International Nurses’ Day in May. He thanked them for their care when he was “idiotic enough to get a shard of coffee pot in my foot”.
