    The last week we are seeing social distancing working well. Not once have we had a daily growth above 30%. We are doing well.

    Very few countries have a growth rate of 30%, it's a ridiculous yardstick. You'll always look well setting a rate like that. Italy hasn't had that growth rate since 1st March!

    It says a lot about the way geopolitics and economies and historical decisions have shaped us that we have to do a 25 hour round trip to China to get personal protective equipment.


    Not a jab at Ireland as such but crazy that we are all dependent on a sweat shop nation to prop up our societies.

    Sounds like we are moving to the mitigation phase.

    What's the mitigation phase?

    Varadkar needs to stop being a step behind this and get two steps ahead.

    We need leadership not sound bites.

    We need a national government with Mary Lou as Minister of Health. However my understanding is that Sinn Fein don't like the idea of governing.

    The worrying thing now is that the Oireachtas is supposedly not able to legislate. However that's just a law we can surely fix.

    Clusters in nursing homes? Does this mean more people have died but not counted?

    Sorry to hear that and RIP and condolences to their family, friends and colleagues.
    We need to protect health workers a lot better or we risk not only a human tragedy but also running out of health workers.

    I’m a bit concerned at very senior ones going on front lines. If we wiped out our experts, we wouldn’t even be able to train more. We’re going to have to be very strategic about protecting key people and the knowledge base.

    Without key experience and expertise we could end up without a health service and severe difficulties training in new people.

    Do you not see the huge contradiction in that statement?
