Special Committee on Covid-19 Response

Reopening the Economy: Public Health Advice

Dr. Cillian De Gascun:

It is difficult to say. We have an idea but we do not know. What we have achieved is that we have driven the infection out of the community to a large extent. It was reported yesterday at the press briefing that we are seeing some household clusters now because people are staying at home and they are transmitting to household contacts. We have also seen a number of employment and work settings that have characteristics that facilitate transmission of the virus such as people working together in shifts, travelling together or living together.
