Ireland in Covid 19 Lockdown L'IRLANDE EN CONFINEMENT DU COVID 19 IRELAND IN COVID 19 LOCKDOWN LEAVING CERT SENTENCES - SENIOR LEVEL Our French Notes are intended for personal use only, and are protected under copyright law © L'IRLANDE EN CONFINEMENT DU COVID 19 Le vendredi 27 mars, notre Premier ministre Leo Varadkar, après des réunions avec le médecin en chef, Tony Holohan, et son ministre de la santé, Simon Harris, a annoncé que l'Irlande allait subir de nouvelles restrictions en réponse à Covid 19. On Friday, the 27th of March our Prime Minister Leo Varadkar, after meetings with the chief medical officer, Tony Holohan and his minister for Health, Simon Harris announced that Ireland would be undergoing further restrictions in response to Covid 19. À partir de minuit le 27 mars et jusqu'au dimanche de Pâques, le 12 avril, les restrictions suivantes s'appliqueront à tous les résidents de la République d'Irlande. From midnight on the 27th of March until Easter Sunday, the 12th of April, the following restrictions will apply to all residents of the Republic of Ireland. Le Taoiseach a déclaré qu'à partir de minuit hier soir et jusqu'au 12 avril, tout le monde doit rester chez soi, sauf circonstances particulières. The Taoiseach has said that from midnight last night until 12 April, everybody must stay at home except in specific circumstances. Leo Varadkar a fait cette annonce dans une mise à jour sur la réponse du gouvernement à la pandémie de coronavirus lors d'une conférence de presse dans les bâtiments du gouvernement. Leo Varadkar made the announcement in an update on the Government's response to the coronavirus pandemic at a press conference at Government Buildings. Bien que M. Varadkar n'ait pas aimé utiliser le terme "confinement national", c'est bien de cela qu'il s'agit. Although Mr. Varadkar did not like to use the term 'lockdown' this is effectively what it is. L'IRLANDE EN CONFINEMENT DU COVID 19 Seuls les travailleurs essentiels, tels que les professionnels de la santé, seront autorisés à se rendre librement sur leur lieu de travail et à en revenir Only essential workers such as health care professionals will be allowed to travel freely to and from work Les gens doivent se rendre compte que ce virus est mortel et que si nous n'adhérons pas à ces nouvelles restrictions, nous nous mettons nous-mêmes et les autres en grave danger. People must realise that this virus is deadly and if we do not adhere to these new restrictions, we are putting both ourselves and others in grave danger. Le lavage régulier des mains et la distanciation sociale sont les seules armes dont nous disposons contre cet ennemi silencieux. Regular hand washing and social distancing are the only weapons we have against this silent enemy. Si chacun prend au sérieux cette période d'enfermement national, nous serons en mesure de briser la chaîne et d'arrêter la propagation de ce virus hautement contagieux et potentiellement mortel. If everyone takes this period of national confinement seriously, we will be able to break the chain and stop the spread of this highly contagious potentially fatal virus. Il incombe donc à chacun de d’entre nous de rester à la maison et de ne pas voyager en dehors d'un rayon de deux kilomètres autour de nos maisons It is therefore up to all of us stay at home and not travel outside a two kilometre radius of our homes.

Professor Martin Cormican; HSE, Dr Ronan Glynn, Department of Health Vía email: [email protected], [email protected] Wednesday, 26 March 2021 Dear Dr Holohan, Firstly, let me extend my condolences to you on the death of your wife last month. I hope you are doing well and managing during these extraordinary times. We write concerning the restrictions imposed at this time on funerals and the rituals that surround dying in Ireland. Bereavement is intrinsically lonely, COVID-19 restrictions have made it more isolating. It has reduced people’s general social outlets, working patterns and natural support networks. The current restrictions of allowing only 10 people attend any aspect of a funeral is causing additional stress, anxiety and heartache to many families. We see the current restrictions as being overly harsh and should be revisited as we learn to live with COVID-19 and manage infection risks. A recent survey, carried out on our behalf, indicates that over 75% of people feel that the grief impact of the pandemic on the nation will be long-lasting. For bereaved individuals, planning funerals of loved ones, honouring that person and receiving the support of their extended family and friends makes for a good impact – we would be keen to minimise any negative impacts over time. Funerals by their nature are made up of both indoor and outdoor elements.

Officials from this Department have been and continue to be available to work with relevant HSE staff.

  • Face-Masks and the Limits of “Evidence-Based” Health Policy Dr
    Face-masks and the limits of “evidence-based” health policy Dr. Louise Caffrey argues that there is good enough evidence to support making face coverings compulsory, if you look beyond what’s strictly medical During the Covid-19 pandemic the Health Information and Quality Authority (HIQA) has been advising the Clinical Expert Advisory Group in supporting the National Public Health Emergency Team. Most recently, HIQA reviewed the evidence on the use of face covering to prevent people from transmitting the Covid-19 virus. Current policy is to only recommend the public wear face coverings rather than making them compulsory on, for example, public transport, in shops and in services. Particularly as we move out of lockdown, whether or not to mandate face coverings is a key question since we now know that the virus is spread, not just through coughing or sneezing, but also by speaking. People are contagious for days before they display symptoms and some people who are contagious never display symptoms. For this reason there is a need to stop people who have no idea they are sick giving the virus to others, for example, when they go to the supermarket or use public transport or indeed if they work in a shop or prepare food for the public. The government’s decision not to make face coverings in enclosed public spaces compulsory is highly controversial because face coverings are most effective at stopping people transmitting the virus. Face coverings are much less effective at stopping people who wear them from getting the virus. So for face coverings to be most effective, and for those wearing them to be well protected, they need to be worn by most people.
