Coronavirus Cases: Isle Of Wight's November Tally Reaches 300

The Isle of Wight has recorded 300 cases of coronavirus this month (November).

According to official figures, the Island has seen an additional 11 cases today (Monday).

It takes the Island's total - since the pandemic started - to 928.

The cases are from people registered on the Isle of Wight.

University students still registered with their GP on the Island, but living on the mainland, may influence data should they test positive for COVID-19, as Isle of Wight Radio previously reported.

The Prime Minister has today announced England will return to the tiered system of restrictions when lockdown ends next week (December 2).

The Isle of Wight Council is advising us to follow the government guidelines: hands, face, space. 

  • Wash your hands often and for at least 20 seconds or use hand sanitiser regularly.
  • Wear a face-covering where appropriate.
  • Keep space from other people; 2 metres or at least 1 metre apart.

If you or someone you know, displays any symptoms, no matter how mild, the council is urging you to get a free test by calling 119 or visiting NHS.uk

The council has also produced a self-isolation toolkit to help people prepare to self-isolate if they need to.
