Manx test rate lower than Guernsey's
More coronavirus tests have been carried out in Guernsey than here because a higher percentage of residents returned from high-risk areas.
Health Minister David Ashford has defended the Island's 0.02% test rate, insisting Public Health has been following the recommended criteria for testing.
More than five times as many residents per head of population have been checked for Covid-19 in Guernsey compared to the Isle of Man, with the Channel Island confirming its first case yesterday.
Mr Ashford insists circumstances here are different:
Government 'will intervene in air market if necessary'
Politicians 'should keep promises on public spending', says MHK
Mountain Road and Sloc remain shut as snow hits the hills
Trump return means Island needs to be 'looking over its shoulder'
