HSBC has evacuated part of its UK headquarters in the bustling Canary Wharf financial district in London over fears an employee has contracted coronavirus.
The UK banking giant has cleared its research department after one of its analysts displayed flu-like symptoms. This area is currently being deep-cleaned. Express.co.uk has contacted HSBC for comment.
The number of confirmed cases of coronavirus, also known as COVID-19, has surged to 90.
England’s Chief Medical Officer Chris Whitty said on Thursday Britain is moving into the second of four phases in its battle plan against the deadly disease.
He said: “The original plan was very much predicated on the idea of ‘if it could be controlled in China and contained everywhere else, this virus might go away’.
“I think the chances of that happening are now very slim. Slim to zero.”
The delay phase means measures to tackle coronavirus are ramped up to delay its spread.
