Visiting is now suspended across a number of Manx Care settings due to the current level of Covid-19 on the Island.

The health body says visiting is not allowed at Noble’s Hospital, Ramsey and District Cottage Hospital and Manannan Court for an initial period of two weeks.

Visiting will be maintained in adult residential care homes for the moment, but will be monitored.

Essential visitors may be permitted in exceptional circumstances.

Meanwhile, Ward 11 is now an additional Covid ward alongside Ward 12.
