COVID-19: IoM Prison visits resume

Isle of Man prison visits have resumed after an outbreak of coronavirus over a month ago.

They were temporarily suspended last month after five Covid-19 cases were discovered.

The move was reviewed weekly to contain the spread of the virus. 

Having been Covid free for more than four weeks, Prison Governor Leroy Bonnick told prisoners that restrictions have now eased.

He has commended prisoners for their understanding during the closure. 

According to the Manx government, resettlement day releases have started again and visits from outside agencies are also now allowed.
