1. Limit the number of visitors to the Hospital. Visitors of patients should only be allowed to meet them within a 3 hour window.

2. Smaller Waiting areas: Smaller waiting areas will be needed to limit the number of people who are not patients.

3. Separate Toilets for Visitors, Staff and Patients: This is necessary for obvious reasons.
