Holohan: We can be ambitious but we need to be very cautious or we’ll have to slow down the reopening




If behaviour leads to infection increases then we’ll slow down

The Chief Medical Officer Dr Tony Holohan said that the change in numbers and the increase in vaccinations are the reason for the country being able to reopen.

We need to be open that we see non compliance in a significant level with something that we didn’t predict and if our R number increases to 1.25 or 1.5 then we may need to step in.

NPHET say that over the coming weeks they think there is no increase in risks. With his arms crossed, Holohan means business and the threat of further restrictions in the future is more than likely a serious one.
