Coronavirus was mentioned for the first time in the show tonight, and it sparked speculation between viewers due to the filming schedule of Holby City.

They flooded Twitter, convinced they’d worked out the behind-the-scenes filming addition.

ITV bosses are said to have decided to ban shaking hands in a bid to prevent the disease from spreading after fears have arisen in the UK.
A source told The Sun Online: “There’s hand sanitizer everywhere and signs up telling people not to shake hands, and to wash them regularly.”
