A ban on visitors at hospitals across Cardiff and the Vale will remain in place amid a norovirus outbreak.
Restrictions were imposed by the Cardiff and Vale health board last Friday following a 'significant' increase in cases, affecting a number of wards and leading to bed closures.
A spokesperson for CAVUHB said on Wednesday that the situation remains "challenging across the organisation and the no visiting policy will remain in place."
But they added restrictions will be reviewed at the end of the week if there's an improvement.
The visitor ban affects both Llandough and Barry hospitals, along with the Hafan-y-Coed mental health unit at Llandough.
The restrictions do not affect outpatient appointments.
Only the Noah's Ark Children's Hospital, based at the University Hospital of Wales in Cardiff, is still allowing visitors.
Exceptions will also be considered, particularly for those patients who are critically ill or receiving end of life care, although visitors will have to wash their hand thoroughly and use sanitising gels.
