Please can we know where exactly in the country these clusters are. Other countries are publishing this information, it puts us at risk not to know. SimonHarrisTD paulreiddublin HSELive
Lockdown those clusters no one in or out, only doctors and nurses‼️
Test. Test. Test. Not enough. Ventilators. Not enough. Politicians, too many.
Be great to know where the clusters are....but i guess that would be asking a bit much.
Why can’t we see where exactly these clusters are? Surely it would only help us avoid these areas and reduce the spread?
