Staff and patients at Ramsey and District Cottage Hospital have been isolated after an outbreak of suspected Norovirus.
The winter vomiting bug has led to closures of wards in UK hospitals, there are fears it could do the same here.
Health officials are urging people who are suffering with symptoms of the bug to stay off work for 48 hours once the symptoms have cleared and not to visit your doctor or hospital in order to prevent the virus spreading.
