AS per usual Ireland is dilly dallying. was working in a hospital that mainly looks after the elderly. Sunday Monday morning,closed to visitors,opened up Monday dinner time, only to close Tuesday evening & it wasn't a decision made in house. If it gets bad over here,this Country will go into meltdown,health service is sheite.
Singapore introduced very strict quarantine rules as well as undertaking vigorous contact tracing procedures in order to isolate as many incidents as possible. Hong Kong were very quick to close schools and they have had a strong community response but then you might expect that considering they are a Chinese territory.
