Concerns crew providing 'back door' for the virus onto the Island
The chief minister says Steam Packet staff will not be put ahead of the queue for a Covid vaccine.
He was replying to an urgent question in the House of Keys today from a Douglas East MHK.
Chris Robertshaw was concerned the crews could turn out to be a 'back door' for the virus to come into the Island.
However Howard Quayle says those most at risk of ill health need to be prioritised for inoculation - above those who risk carrying the virus:
MiCard users who can't use bank accounts to receive new cards
Mountain closure further extended
Chief minister proposes issuing new MiCards to those who can't open bank accounts
Timeline for new CRHS 'a bit tight', says education minister
More details about MiCard replacement could be revealed today
