Today's Covid-19 briefing from government has been rescheduled for tomorrow.

Government says this is due to the Speaker recalling the House of Keys for an afternoon sitting at 3.30pm this afternoon.

As a result, the briefing will be held at 4pm on Friday and you'll be able to watch it live on the 3FM website and Facebook page.

Officials add Covid results will be published as usual at around 4pm today.

Meanwhile, the Public Q&A session which was planned for tomorrow afternoon will now take place on a different date and time to be confirmed.
