There's 'cautious optimism' among government officials that Tuesday's Covid-19 case of unknown origin has been contained.
'Surge testing' was undertaken around the individual, with Public Health confident onward transmission has been contained.
As of the latest (1 April) update, there are 294 active cases on the Island, four people with the virus are in hospital, none are in intensive care.
Director Dr Henrietta Ewart says there's still a chance the unexplained case has spread in the community:
Island's finances 'in a better position than most other jurisdictions'
Completion of assisted dying bill 'the most significant moment of 2025'
Keep dogs away from Garwick Beach for next few days
Cost of sending a letter on the Island to increase in January
