Ashford says health department monitoring situation
The health minister says urgent treatment for Island patients will continue at hospitals in the Liverpool city area.
The region has been placed under tighter restrictions because of a surge in coronavirus cases and admissions.
David Ashford admits the situation across the water is worrying but says strict regimes are in place to seperate Covid-19 wards from other hospital areas.
He states people with more serious conditions remain the top priority:
Vote on Castle Rushen High School funding 'very unlikely' before election
Ramsey Commissioners to host public meeting about cottage hospital
DfE provided more than £250,000 to MT to assist with below ground fibre installations
