A vessel was expected in Douglas Bay today
A cruise liner's diverted a vessel that was due to stop in Douglas today (1 July) due to a 'prevalence of Covid on the ship'.
The Seven Seas Voyager, travelling from Dublin to Holyhead, was due in Douglas Bay at 8am.
It was due to be in Manx waters until 7pm but did not arrive.
Health Minister Lawrie Hooper says he was advised the company took the decision due to case numbers on the ship and not because of current Coronavirus levels here:
