Sat, 27 Feb 2021


The Chief Minister has called for all residents to stay at home.

Howard Quayle said: "This is not a legal requirement, but clear advice".

"We are on top of our contact tracing, working forwards and backwards. We are reaching and testing all close contacts of the cases without delay. Those who need to are self-isolating."

It follows nine new cases detected on the Island in the last 24 hours.

Six of the cases relate to the recently identified cluster and all six individuals were already in self-isolation.

One of the cases is an individual already self-isolating following travel to the Island.

The remaining two cases cannot as yet be explained, indicating there may a low level of community spread of the virus.
