To cite the advice of the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland in regard to this matter, it is to the effect that we cease all emergency surgery, all emergency surgery admissions, examine patients in the emergency department and transfer any patient needing a surgical admission - this accounts for four admissions a day, approximately two of which would require a surgical procedure - and so on.
