Be aware of symptoms if heading to uni
As students around the Island collect their A level results today (Thu), there's been a warning to shield themselves against a potentially deadly health risk.

Fortunately, it can be prevented with a single jab from your GP's surgery.
Jackie Dunn from the Isle of Man Public Health Directorate says students should be aware of the symptoms:
