Island closes down after stomach bug - The Times 21st September 2007

Friday, September 21, 2007

The island of Lundy in the Bristol Channel has been closed to visitors for the first time in its history after an outbreak of a highly infectious stomach bug. More than 50 people including visitors, day-trippers and staff have fallen ill this month. Now the Landmark Trust, which runs Lundy, has banned all visitors from tomorrow for 12 days. During the closure the 23 holiday properties, as well as staff quarters and the island’s only pub, will be deep-cleaned to wipe out the bug.
