Concerns crew providing 'back door' for the virus onto the Island
The chief minister says Steam Packet staff will not be put ahead of the queue for a Covid vaccine.
He was replying to an urgent question in the House of Keys today from a Douglas East MHK.
Chris Robertshaw was concerned the crews could turn out to be a 'back door' for the virus to come into the Island.
However Howard Quayle says those most at risk of ill health need to be prioritised for inoculation - above those who risk carrying the virus:
