Third Covid-19 lockdown officially ends

The Isle of Man's third Coronavirus lockdown has officially come to an end.

All remaining Covid-19 restrictions were lifted just after Midnight, non-essential retail and lifestyle businesses are able to return along with pubs, restaurants and cafes. 

Meanwhile, schools are now able to allow all pupils to head back to classrooms.

Restrictions around gatherings, social distancing and face coverings have also been removed.

However, border restrictions remain in place meaning non-residents still require exemption certificates to travel to Manx shores.
