    He's reporting on it. He doesn't release the statements or the findings. He's just a regurgitator.

    Where do you source the truth on the daily Irish case rate?
    Live stream the HSE news conference?

    What sources do you use to give you the detail that you base your wórld view on?

    That's good to know and a startling revelation. I'm shocked and stunned by this information.
