Those are very high numbers. We obviously have had very high levels of community transition but the number of outbreaks in nursing homes at the moment, amounting to over 190, is very high.

I wish to ask Ms O'Neill about crisis management. I have engaged with many groups that are raising concerns, from the Irish Association of Social Workers to Sage Advocacy and Care Champions. I want to discuss some of these concerns. In response to my first question, I do not want context or even the policy. Is there an outbreak management plan in place? Has the HSE an outbreak management plan, a crisis management plan, for all nursing homes, both public and private?
