Impact of Covid-19 on Irish Dance Sector: Discussion
Dr. Orfhlaith Ní Bhriain:
I would really like to emphasise that point.
Some of the guidelines are contradictory. There are inconsistencies there. Gymnastics is allowed because gymnasts do not perspire, apparently, but dancers do.
That is not fair. I am not against anybody having a shot at elite performance activities indoors. Good luck to them if they can make it work but I think it is unfair. Either one can do physical and cultural activities while indoors or one cannot.
