The remaining Six Nations games are set to go ahead amid coronavirus fears.
Italy’s clash in Ireland was called off last week due to the spread of Covid19, which has infected more than 88,000 people with the death toll surpassing the 3,000 mark.
Six Nations chiefs held discussions at a World Rugby conference in Paris on Monday and insist they will continue to monitor the situation.
A statement said: “The Six Nations met today in Paris to address the current situation regarding the Covid19 Virus.
“Six Nations and its six unions and federations are following the situation very closely with their respective governments and relevant health authorities and will strictly follow any directive given that would impact sporting events.
“As it stands, based on the latest information, all Six Nations matches currently scheduled are set to go ahead.
“Six Nations is in contact with the Italian and English unions regarding the possibility of relocating the women’s and under-20 Italy vs England matches to another Italian location and we will make a further announcement on this in due course.
“However, the Italy vs England senior men’s match in Rome is planned to go ahead as scheduled.
“Six Nations intends to complete all 15 games across all three championships when time allows, but we will refrain from making any rescheduling announcements for the time being while we keep assessing the situation.”
Five surviving fixtures, including England’s match with Italy in Rome on March 14, are expected to take place.
