A local GP is urging the Manx public to help save lives during the Covid-19 pandemic.
Martin Rankin - who works night shifts for the Manx Emergency Doctors Service doesn't think the Island's lockdown should be eased just yet.
Mr Rankin - who hasn't had a day off since March 8th, has created a video, showing Noble's hospital and its surroundings - including the Newlands wards where Coronavirus patients are treated.
Dr Rankin shows graphs which suggest current restrictions are working and he's urging the community to stay indoors and keep the lock-down.
He says these restrictions need to be in place until we've had at least a week with no new cases.
Lastly, he adds "please, please, please do not relax the lockdown until we have the disease erradicated, only then we can open shops and enjoy the Island's summer."
