There's going to be a "significant ramping up" of the booster vaccination programme on the Isle of Man.
That's the latest from the Isle of Man government as the island steps up protection measures against the spread of COVID-19.
In a public briefing yesterday, the Chief Minister said while we don't know how effective current vaccines are against the new variant, they remain our best protection.
Alf Cannan added: "Ensuring the population has the highest level of protection possible will help prepare for another wave of infection.
"The message is simple. Please take up the offer of a vaccine or a booster when you are contacted.
"It is the best step you can take to protect yourself, protect your loved ones and protect your community".
