The Covid-19 virus causes symptoms similar to flu; most commonly a fever, a cough and shortness of breath, and is thought to be spread by cough droplets transferred onto hands, furniture, and other items from an infected person. Most people affected by Covid-19 only become mildly ill and recover quickly, but older people or those with conditions that affect their heart (like high blood pressure), breathing (like asthma) or immune system (like diabetes) are more at risk of severe effects.

Following the most recent advice from the World Health Organisation and Public Health England about the worldwide outbreak of Coronavirus, Covid-19, and the moderate risk it may present to the general public in the UK, St Pancras Clinical Research is taking an intensive proactive approach to infection control, as we see a large number of potentially more vulnerable patients.

We ensure that all our facilities, including clinic rooms, public areas and toilets, are cleaned and disinfected regularly throughout the day by staff trained in rigorous infection control procedure. Disposable tissues, hand-washing facilities and gel hand sanitiser is readily available in all public and clinical areas for you to use, as well as immediately as you enter & leave the building. We also encourage all visitors to the clinic to follow the latest NHS advice on protecting yourself and others:
