New online booster bookings aiming to relieve challenges
The health minister has admitted the Covid 111 service is under 'quite a lot' of pressure.
In an attempt to relieve demand, a new online booking system to get Covid-19 booster jab appointments has been launched.
Currently, people over 60 and those who're extremely clinically vulnerable are being invited to book a jab slot online..
Mr Hooper says changes to vaccine guidance elsewhere has had a knock-on effect on the Manx service:
Assisted Dying: 'If anyone had seen what my husband went through, they'd understand'
Campaigner "thrilled" as Manx assisted dying law receives royal assent
Campaigners call for more mental health support
Suicide prevention protest takes place outside Tynwald
'Government Programme' needs to be a meaningful tool for people to see change
Straightforward communication needs to underpin everything says minister
Medical society: 'We need answers' over assisted dying
Doctors say they feel there hasn't been enough engagement with those who would be providing the service
