There is still the equivalent of three large hospitals full of coronavirus patients in Wales, according to NHS Wales Chief Executive Dr Andrew Goodall.

Speaking at the Welsh Government's daily press conference, Dr Goodall said there are currently 885 covid-19 patients in hospital beds.

Following the introduction of ''support bubbles'' in England, allowing people living alone to stay with one other household, Dr Goodall said calls for the same thing will be reviewed by the Welsh Government.

''We'll be approaching the next phase of the lockdown review through next week,'' he said.

Dr Goodall also said a wider range of dental treatments will be available in Wales from July
