Events cancelled and parents take own action
Isle of Man Government is in a position to close schools and ban large gatherings following its move to the delay phase to try and combat coronavirus.
However, Health Minister David Ashford says we are not in a position yet where these measures will be introduced.
Some Island events are being cancelled as a precaution despite official advice and Manx Radio has been contacted by a few parents who have decided to keep their children off school.
Health Minister David Ashford says he can't condone such action:-
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'
