Harris tells people who are feeling sick to check a website to see how sick they are




The former trainee journalist turned Minister for Health has decided to give advice to the public on minding their health.

As 600 people languished on trolleys around the country yesterday, according to figures just released by the Irish Nurses and Midwives Organisation (INMO), Minister for Health Simon Harris had a very simple Simon answer, check a website!

Speaking on VirginMedia News yesterday, Harris advised people who are feeling sick to check a website called “undertheweather.ie” to see just how sick they really are!

This is the highest figure recorded since March of last year.

University Hospital Limerick once again tops the shameful list, with 59 patients suffering while waiting for a bed, followed by South Tipperary Hospital with 50, and Cork University Hospital with 48.

It appears you’re not been advised by the actual Minister for Health himself to go to a website rather than A&E.
