A SINGLE Covid case has been added to the Isle of Wight's total, according to the latest data.

Yesterday, six new cases were recorded, and a single case the day before.

Public Health England figures released today (Friday) show just one new case.

The Island's cumulative total since the start of the pandemic now stands at 6,789.

Five year groups from Ryde School have been learning from home, after confirmed Covid-19 cases.

Families with children in reception, and Years 3 to 6, have been staying away from school, and pupils and associated staff members have been self-isolating.

When Covid-19 struck an Isle of Wight household, two-and-a-half-year-old Cockapoo Henry was not only man's best friend but became a hero.
