Chief minister gives statement on Guernsey situation
Around a thousand people were due to fly between the Isle of Man and Guernsey during the half term.
Chief Minister Howard Quayle gave a statement in the House of Keys this morning on the suspension of the air bridge, after cases of 'unknown origin' were discovered in the Channel Island.
It's thought no visitors to the Isle of Man had connections with the cluster.
Since then the number of cases there has risen to eight, and Howard Quayle warned it could get worse:
After the air bridge was suspended, 120 people were flown back as soon as possible, and begin 14-days self-isolation.
Responding to the chief minister's statement, Chris Robertshaw MHK asked whether any financial support would be made available to these people.
So far, Mr Quayle says no financial support has been offered, but people and businesses can reach out if they're affected:
