Last week Ireland adopted tough additional measures designed to limit the spread of #COVID19. It has been a truly nationwide effort to stop the spread of this virus & to protect the vulnerable. We need to keep it going. We need to #FlattenTheCurve even more than we have.

The Taoiseach @LeoVaradkar said not all superheroes wear capes, it's true, some of them keep a distance of 2m from others and stay home when sick. #COVID19ireland #SocialDistancing #InThisTogether

I appreciate social distancing is a new concept for pretty much all of us, but hopefully this graphic can illustrate its importance and the #PowerOfOne Each of us has a role to play in interrupting transmission of #SARSCoV2 #WashYourHands #CoverYourCough #SocialDistancing

The next 7 days are vital. Now is the time to #FlattenTheCurve. Every one of us must play our part; 1. Reduce your social contacts – see only a handful of people in your network 2. Distance yourself 2 metres from people in shops & supermarkets #COVID19 #SocialDistancing

House parties or ‘COVID parties’ carry the same risks as being in a pub/club. People should not organise or attend them. The virus is now in our community. Practice #SocialDistancing and help us to limit the spread. #COVIDー19 @roinnslainte
