Special Committee on Covid-19 Response

Reopening the Economy: Public Health Advice

Professor Philip Nolan:

The management of any second wave will be different from the management of the first wave. The wave is likely to be different and we know an awful lot more about how to manage the virus than we did the last time. One might imagine that there could be more targeted measures introduced to control future outbreaks before the type of blanket measures we have seen in this context. I am not evading the question; I simply cannot give the Deputy a probability as to how likely or unlikely a second wave is.
