Edge concerned about space for Manx residents
An MHK wants to know if there's enough capacity in nearby UK hospital trusts if Manx residents need intensive care treatment.
Onchan member Julie Edge has tabled an emergency question for Tynwald this week.
It's in light of recent Covid-19 pressure on the NHS in England.
She wants the health minister to give an update on capacity of facilities in Merseyside and the North West:
