MHK expressed concern over 'back door' to the virus
An MHK says government has been too slow to respond to the risk of Covid-19 coming to the Isle of Man via the Steam Packet.
It's as a UK-based crew member on the Ben-my-Chree has tested positive for coronavirus.
Earlier this week, East Douglas member Chris Robertshaw called for crew to be vaccinated, to close what he described as a ‘back door’ to the virus.
Mr Robertshaw appeared live on Manx Radio's Mannin Line this lunchtime:
