Former MHK says medical director should have been heard
Care home residents who died from Covid-19 may have been saved if the advice of the Isle of Man's most senior doctor had been actioned.
That's the opinion of former MHK, and Tynwald committee member, Chris Roberthsaw.
Dr Rosalind Ranson advised government to shut the borders 11 days before they did saying 'the virus won't wait'.

Mr Robertshaw says if she'd been listened to things could have been different:
Public Health reports increase in flu-like illnesses
Cabinet Office spent more than £92k on North and West Area Plan inquiry last summer
MHK fears former MHK's meat plant role creates 'transparency issue'
Half of Island's public access defibrillators back in use thanks to charity
