Watch British doctor claim 'Ireland has no Health Service'

A British doctor has been blasted online after claiming on national TV that 'Ireland doesn't have a health service'.The doctor, who appears regularly on British TV, was under fire from presenters Piers Morgan and Susanne Reid who were quizzing him about the UK's controversial approach to the COVID-19 pandemic.

"The Republic of Ireland for example, they don't have a Health Service so they must be very worried with how they'd cope with lots of people getting the virus all at once, in other words a sharp peak." Public health services in Ireland are, in fact, run by the Health Service Executive . The comments from Jones have been blasted online with viewers asking for an apology over the claims.
