Health minister discusses rise of cases in the UK
The health minister says he doesn't expect a step back to level 5 of the border framework any time soon.
It's as cases of Covid-19 in the UK are on the rise, with the Office for National Statistics reporting a 1-in-1,400 infection rate.
When government moved to level 4 of the border framework the infection rate in the UK was 1-in-3,900.
However, David Ashford says the ONS has changed the way it records these results since they last influenced a change in the Island's border framework:
Newson's owners 'giving up' and selling the building
Urgent warning after two 'near fatal' Heroin overdoses
'Extremely stupid' teen spared jail after police chase
Tax Strategy, Covid Review, and Israel and Hamas on Tynwald agenda
Island's hospitality industry 'in crisis'
Dogs should be kept on leads to keep them safe
