Utterly disgraceful: People will have to show vaccine certs to get in to see loved ones in care homes from today




It can’t be underestimated how different the world is in 2021 from what it was in 2019.

Ireland has seen many draconian restrictions imposed over the past 20 months, but perhaps the latest instruction from Dr Tony Holohan and NPHET are the worst yet.

From today, people who wish to visit loved ones in care homes around the country will have to produce their covid papers to prove that they’ve been double vaxxed before they can gain entry to see their loves ones.

It’s understood that there will be an exception for compassionate reasons but otherwise those who have chosen not to be vaccinated for whatever reason, or those who medically cannot get vaccinated will not be allowed in to see their loved ones in care homes.

Many on social media feel that this move by NPHET and the government is absolutely disgraceful.
