A doctor has said he believes the country is “weeks away” from a second wave of the coronavirus, after witnessing large crowds gathered outside pubs in Dublin city centre on Saturday night.

“There were guards everywhere and they were doing their best but it was just completely rammed.”

“I really felt that way and it was really anxiety inducing. Those on the front line have been psychologically traumatised by what they have experienced over the last three months and they’re just not ready to face into it again,” he added. Dr Ó Tuathail said he wasn’t trying to be “a killjoy” and that his own father is a publican in Co Galway who has been planning for the last two months how to reopen his own bar.

Dr Ó Tuathail also said the risks associated with foreign travel are “huge” and urged holidaymakers to stay in Ireland this summer rather than go abroad.
