The Taoiseach said there has been no change to the public health advice on the 2m social distancing rule

The Taoiseach has re-affirmed that the two metre social distancing rule "stands", and there has been "no change" to the public health advice.

It is understood those concerns will be raised at a meeting between Chief Medical Officer Dr Tony Holohan and the Cabinet later this week, which had been already been scheduled for exchanges on general public health advice. However, opposition parties have been strongly critical of how the issue of social distancing is being handled by the Government.

Labour leader Alan Kelly said: "After the complete confusion over the bonkers two hour rule this week, we now need a clear explanation from the Government on why we are specifically using the two metre rule and if the WHO is recommending that distance."

And there's the word 'advice'!

I wonder how people with dyslexia, would interpret that?

Might want to pass the information on to some shopping centres

*Acting Taoiseach

Can we form a group on Facebook? Protests at 8pm every night in front of local church (not religious but easy to locate). Spread the message.

No sense of proportion. Common sense all but gone. “The Science” is the new God! Is this not the definition of the start of the Zombie Apocalypse?! 🧟‍♀️ no?

There is zero scientific evidence behind these guidelines. People have been scared into believing these blatant lies.

Unfortunately if you want people to stay 1m apart you need to tell them to stay 2m apart. Keep things as they are.

No it's just being 'floated' PR style

Holohan wins again...rulebyfear

Why were folks looking to make it a shorter distance?

Public health advice is not law....so its not illegal

When is Ireland getting the accurate tests? Unverified numbers so far only.

I will no longer be taking/living by any advice from this idiot. I will continue to inform myself on the subject and draw my own conclusions. No science or logic or sanity or rationale is involved in any of this 'leader's' decisions

Any scientific evidence for this 2m rule FakeNews ? Scamdemic CrimesAgainstHumanity event201 BillGatesIsEvil Agenda2030 NWO

Social distancing 1 metre in Denmark, 1.5 metres in Holland,, is there a single bit of scientific evidence on the real distance if any at all I would like to see how these experiments were conducted

Good decision..... now if everyone would do it !!!!

All the resources expended on 2m signage... just stick to the 2m please

Bye bye economy or chanch of recovery in that case....2 metre distance plus 2 week quarantine for all visitors...With negative interest rates can we just borrow to keep economy going....
