Today, we received guidance that I understand is from the HSE on the conduct of our meetings here. It states: "If a person develops COVID-19 any person who spent a cumulative period of 2 hours or more during a 24 hour period in an enclosed space", and this place apparently fits that definition, should be advised to self-isolate within 14 days. In other words, if one person in this room gets Covid-19 then all of us should self-isolate. Does Mr. Reid stand over that advice?
