Schools, nurseries & the Island's college will open as normal tomorrow.

The news was confirmed by the Chief Minister in today's Coronavirus press briefing.

Following two unexplained Covid-19 cases yesterday, officials says they're confident there has been no further transmission and for the time being - they haven't seen any further cases.

The Council of Ministers met earlier today and decided not to bring in any further formal measures at this stage.

This means that schools, nurseries and University College Isle of Man can open as usual tomorrow morning.

Mr Quayle warned the situation will continue to be monitored and things could change very quickly.
