That is fine. We could apply that to anywhere in the country. It never flooded before but it might flood. Ms Walsh is director of nursing so she would be the ideal person to deal with infection control. We are talking about shutting down St. Brigid's because of infection control issues among other issues. All the witnesses exaggerated the number of beds. They are four-bed wards, not five-bed wards. We turn it into a Covid step-down facility. Covid is a highly transmissible disease yet we are not worried about infection control there. I do not believe there was ever an intention to reopen it, although this is not a question for Ms Walsh. I believe the stuff was ripped out. What is the difference in infection control for a Covid environment versus any other environment? Is there a difference?
