The national suspension on visiting imposed under previous guidance was lifted with immediate effect.</p><p>Visiting is now subject to local discretion by trusts and other NHS bodies, and will take into account local prevalence. The number of visitors at the bedside is limited to one close family contact or somebody important to the patient. However, where it is possible to maintain social distancing throughout the visit, a second additional visitor can be permitted in certain circumstances including those individuals receiving end-of-life care.</p><p>The maternity visiting guidance has been published by NHS England and NHS Improvement.

Figures from Health Protection Scotland, Public Health Wales and the Public Health Agency (Northern Ireland) have always included tested cases outside hospital. Figures for England from 29 April onwards are provided by Public Health England and draw together several different data sources, including data from NHS England and NHS Improvement, to produce this broader measure.</p><p>This approach allows us to compile deaths data on a daily basis using up-to-date figures across all settings.</p> answering member constituency Bury St Edmunds answering member printed Jo Churchill question first answered 12/05/2020 10:10:55 answering member 4380 label Biography information for Jo Churchill previous answer version 18670 answering member constituency Mid Bedfordshire answering member printed Ms Nadine Dorries answering member 1481 label Biography information for Ms Nadine Dorries
