Ireland introduces new health measures, such as the closure of entertainment centers at midnight due to a rebound in Covid

The Government of Ireland announced on Tuesday new restrictions within the framework of the upturn in infections that it is experiencing, which has led to the closure of restaurants and hotels at midnight and has led the authorities to ask citizens that, to the extent of if possible, go back to teleworking.

The Irish Prime Minister, Micheal Martin, has asked this Tuesday, in an appearance broadcast by the country’s public media, the Irish to reduce their social contacts again. Likewise, it has announced that the health pass that justifies vaccination or having recovered from the coronavirus will be necessary in cinemas and theaters.

“It is our collective effort and adherence to public health measures that will keep our society and our economy open, that will sustain and maintain our progress, and that will keep us healthy and safe,” Martin said.

Ireland, which has 90% of the vaccinated population, is experiencing a rebound in cases for the fourth time, detailed Martin, who has warned that hospitals and health centers are experiencing “huge increases in the number of people who present problems not related to Covid-19 “, reports RTE.

In this context, the prime minister has warned that at this rate, the health system will soon collapse.

The new measures have sparked a dispute between the prime minister and the leader of the Labor Party after, in a private meeting, Martin allegedly conveyed to Alan Kelly that teachers would be exempt from five days of isolation if they are in contact with a positive.

Martin has reported that teachers will have to submit to this measure, after ugly that the information that Kelly had previously shared was “a misinterpretation” of their conversation.
