Pathology data triggering extra dashboard updates

More than one 'snapshot' of data

Pathology updates are triggering the Covid-19 dashboard to update more frequently. 

Throughout the pandemic the government statistics have been presented as a once a day 'snapshot' of current information.

However on Sunday the dashboard was updated on more than one occasion causing many people to question the figures – it also happened again yesterday. 

In a statement to Manx Radio government has attributed it to extra updates from the pathology laboratory.
