HOSPITAL wards were shut over the weekend at Northwick Park Hospital after a spread of winter vomiting disease Norovirus.

The site, in Watford Road, had to close two wards on Saturday with one re-opening today.

A spokesman from The North West London Hospitals NHS Trust said the situation had been "controlled".

The trust has advised people not to visit the hospital if they have any symptoms of diarrhoea or vomiting and wait until at least 48 hours for the symptoms to clear up.
