Weekly swab tests available to staff working with most vulnerable
A government testing programme has been set up for frontline staff dealing with the most vulnerable in society.
Regular weekly testing has been opened up for any nursing home staff, hospital workers, and police who would like it.
Health Minister David Ashford spoke about the new testing measures on Manx Radio Breakfast this morning.
However, despite the number of active cases on the Island going down, Mr Ashford predicts the virus will be with us for a while:
Cost of off-Island healthcare treatment almost £2m higher than forecast over five-month period
Options for Tramway Terrace expected in the next eight weeks
