There have been no new deaths in Wales for the third time this week according to figures from Public Health Wales.

In the past 24 hours there have been 16 new cases with 2 new cases in Conwy and 1 Denbighshire.

Dr Giri Shankar, Incident Director for the Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak response at Public Health Wales, said:

“Public Health Wales welcomes the gradual easing of lockdown measures with the opening of self-catering accommodation in Wales from yesterday (11 July) and hairdressers, pub gardens and outdoor cafes from Monday (13 July).

“However, we continue to caution and remind the public and business-owners that we all have a vital role in preventing the spread of Coronavirus by always sticking to social distancing guidelines - staying two metres away from others, and washing hands regularly. When travelling you should also avoid car sharing with people outside your household.

"Anyone with suspected symptoms of COVID-19 infection - a high temperature, a new, continuous cough, or a loss of smell or taste (anosmia) - must self-isolate and seek an urgent test.

"Confirmed cases must isolate for seven days, with members of their household isolating for 14 days until the risk of passing on further infection has gone. Combined these simple but effective actions will ensure the virus does not spread."
