Special Committee on Covid-19 Response
Briefing by Department of Health Officials
Dr. Tony Holohan:
That figure does not relate to visitor restrictions. We know that the point at which visitor restrictions were recommended by us, which was on 12 March, there were no reported clusters. No country made a such a recommendation, relative to the path of infection, earlier than we did. That is in comparison with a range of countries. I do not want to waste the time of the committee but I have that data here.
