Plan to complete process while they are on Island
Manx students, currently studying in the UK, will be offered both doses of a Covid-19 vaccine in the summer holidays.
Health Minister David Ashford confirmed the move yesterday but said the gap between jabs will be shortened.
Students will have their jabs eight weeks apart instead.
Mr Ashford says it will allow the whole process to take place on Island:
