The action follows five confirmed cases in the area over the last two weeks. Three people are still in hospital. Two of the five cases live in the Renfrew area and the other three cases have either visited or worked there during the two-week incubation period of the disease.

Investigations into a possible source are ongoing in partnership with the Health and Safety Executive, Health Protection Scotland, Renfrewshire Council and other local authorities.
