Self-testing devices are a 'crutch' says chief minister
People on the Isle of Man are being urged to increase their use of lateral flow tests.
It follows a warning that a new strain of Covid-19 – Omicron – will arrive on the Island 'sooner rather than later'.
From Tuesday government is mandating the use of masks on public transport and has changed border rules to require more testing.
Chief Minister Alfred Cannan says the LFTs are a 'crutch' and is urging the community to 'work together' ahead of Christmas:
Southern Amenity Site changes disposal policy for residents to six bags a month
Island's economy 'not in the same context' it was 18 months ago
Inmate 'likely died hours before being found'
Roadshow turnout shows public has 'lots of concern'
CCTV across schools being actively looked at
Bishop's vote and assisted dying on Keys agenda
