Alert level 2 restrictions will help protect Caerphilly residents from the large wave of infections caused by the omicron variant of coronavirus. Businesses affected by the restrictions will receive financial help from the Welsh Government, starting this week.

We help tackle misinformation by providing accurate information on which people can base informed decisions. We encourage everyone to take their information from trusted sources. We ask anyone who hasn't had their vaccination to come forward, and to play their part in keeping themselves, their loved ones and Wales safe.
