Wrexham Maelor Hospital wards shut due to norovirus

Five wards at Wrexham Maelor Hospital have been closed to the public following an outbreak of norovirus.

Two other wards also have some restrictions in place in a bid to stop it spreading.

The move comes after 21 patients showed symptoms of the winter vomiting bug.

A Betsi Cadwaladr health board spokesman urged any visitors with symptoms to stay away from the hospital.
