Commando training continues though
The Ministry of Defence says the Royal Marines' Commando Training Centre at Lympstone has been affected by an outbreak of covid-19. Although they haven't confirmed numbers, separate government figures show a cluster of 26 people confirmed with the virus in the Lympstone and Clyst St Mary area.
A Royal Navy spokesperson says: "We can confirm that a number of personnel at the Commando Training Centre Royal Marines (CTCRM) have tested positive for covid-19. Personnel who have been in contact with those testing positive are self-isolating in line with Public Health England guidance.
"There is no impact on other trainees at CTCRM. The safety and welfare of our people remains paramount."
