Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what the cost to the public purse is of quarantining citizens that have been repatriated from Wuhan at Arrowe Park Hospital.
This question was answered on 5th February 2020
The Government has responded to the Wuhan coronavirus by putting in place protocols to protect the United Kingdom, and will continue to take action in line with the level of threat. Funding is in place to support this.
It is too early to know the final cost to the public purse associated with placing citizens returning from Wuhan in supported isolation at Arrowe Park Hospital.
