Quayle says Liverpool lab offers the best service for Manx coronavirus analysis
Support from world class genomics experts available at a lab in Liverpool can't be replicated on the Isle of Man.
That's according to Chief Minister Howard Quayle, who was asked why Manx coronavirus results aren't analysed on Island after a local scientist offered to process samples for free within 48 hours.
Genomics testing shows which strains of coronavirus are present on the Island and helps identify transmission chains.
Mr Quayle insists the service provided in Liverpool is the best available:
Cannan: 'Too early to reveal any re-election plans'
Meta seeking permission to continue pop-up lounge bar in Peel
Consultation on future regulation of charities
Series of events aimed at retaining skilled professionals on Island
Figures show cost of works at Ramsey and District Cottage Hospital
