Rule was removed by Manx Care this week
Removing the requirement for face coverings in healthcare settings on Island was a 'carefully considered decision'.
That's according to Manx Care after it removed the need to wear a face covering across its settings this week.
Chief executive Teresa Cope admits, following greater numbers on Island recently during TT, they do anticipate a 'small increase' in Covid case numbers.
However she insists Manx Care will continue to monitor the situation for both patients and staff:
