Chief Minister calls for 'national effort' to tackle Covid spread
The Isle of Man must prepare itself for a 'difficult few weeks', according to the Chief Minister.
Alfred Cannan says it will require a 'national effort' to tackle the spread of Covid-19, adding the Omicron variant is now assumed to be the dominant strain locally.
The increase in Coronavirus cases is affecting staffing across the Island including in healthcare, with visiting being restricted in Manx Care settings from today (31 December).
Mr Cannan says the Council of Ministers will continue to monitor the situation over the coming days:
Lack of opportunity to study science 'could be impacting future doctors'
Glen Maye patient airlifted to the UK
Trial for man who denies being controlling and coercive
Visitors asked to avoid main cemetery entrance on Sunday
Onchan man accused of committing act against public justice
Douglas Council using reserves to pay for 'decorative' promenade lighting
