The UK Government has today confirmed that the COVID-19 virus (coronavirus) is a declared notifiable disease which will enable clients to mitigate business impact if suffering losses as a result of the disease such as lost bookings for restaurants and hotels.
There will remain an onus to demonstrate proof of such losses, but, this is a positive step for clients and customers who are exposed as a result of the recent virus outbreak.
Saifinsure urge our customers and clients to utilise the Government websites regarding travel advice to overseas countries and to do this immediately before travel as the advice is constantly being updated.
The COVID-19 virus had already been declared notifiable by the Scottish and Northern Ireland Governments.
