<p>Professor Chris Whitty said the person, who did not contract the virus in the UK, is currently being transferred to one of the UK’s four infectious diseases centres for treatment.</p>
<p><!--Ads1--></p>
<p>Two other patients are still being treated at the Royal Victoria Infirmary infectious diseases centre in Newcastle upon Tyne.</p>
<p>In a statement, Prof Whitty said: “A further patient has tested positive for coronavirus, bringing the total number of cases in the UK to three.</p>
<p>“The individual did not acquire this in the UK.</p>
<p>“The patient is being transferred to a specialist NHS centre, and we are using robust infection control measures to prevent any possible further spread of the virus.</p>
<p><!--Ads2--></p>
<p>“The NHS is well prepared to manage these cases and we are now working quickly to identify any contacts the patient has had.”</p>
