So we may gain a sense of proportion - this local outbreak was caused by one bloke visiting a pub. The principle is the same but the extent not - yet.
Unfortunately not true.

Two of those who were with him in the ski chalet were local Brighton GPs (doctors) who returned to work on their return. The clinic of of one, County Oak, has been closed and disinfected as other staff have been identified as infected and the NHS is trying to trace the patients they have seen since their return.

A medical student from Sussex University, who has doing training at the clinic, has been taken from the university campus accommodation in an ambulance and is now in isolation. A Bevendean primary school teacher who was in close contact of one of those identified as infected has been placed in isolation and the parents told they can keep their children at home.

And so it spreads.
