Restaurants and pubs have no indicative date for return of customers inside premises

The Health Service Executive raised concerns with the Cabinet about the “practicality” of plans put forward by the National Public Health Emergency Team to restrict indoor hospitality to vaccinated people, it has emerged.

The Cabinet’s decision to adopt the controversial Nphet recommendation came despite the HSE privately questioning how the system would work and how it could be set up in a fortnight. There have been opposition calls for an independent review of Nphet’s projections on the impact of the Delta variant in terms of hospitalisations and deaths with some Ministers also said to be pushing for this.

Really? Ireland do better. It's safe if you use precautions & common sense. Neither provided by politicians nor medical 'experts'
