Masks still required in health and care settings

Manx Care taking 'cautious approach' to reducing Covid mitigations

People visiting health and care settings will be given masks, free of charge, by Manx Care:

She's also confirmed hospital visitors will no longer need to pre-book appointments, or complete registration forms, when the Island moves to an endemic approach to living with the virus.
