Luke O’Neill: More Social Mixing is Causing High COVID Rates in Ireland

Social Mixing is Causing High COVID Rates

Professor Luke O’Neill says increased mixing and mingling is causing a high COVID-19 infection rate, despite a high vaccine uptake.
 
He was speaking as the head of the HSE, Paul Reid, says 86 people are in intensive care with the virus and this is likely to increase.
 
It means just 15 ICU beds are free across the country at present.
 
Mr Reid says the situation can be turned around with heightened individual and collective awareness in the coming weeks.
