Being offered to those most at risk of becoming ill

Suitability will be assessed on a patient's health status.
Manx Care will offer antiviral medication - in either tablet form or via intravenous infusion - for those who are confirmed as having the virus via PCR test.
Health and Social Care Minister Lawrie Hooper says challenges in getting access to the medication have now been resolved:
