HEALTH OFFICIALS LAST night warned that if Level 3 restrictions on visitors have no effect on the spread of the coronavirus, it’s forecast that there will be between 1,800-2,200 Covid-19 cases a day, and over 400 people with Covid-19 in hospital by Halloween.
The Government already rejected NPHET’s Level 5 recommendation earlier this month and instead opted for nationwide Level 3 restrictions.
