CMO spoke to Health Minister before and after NPHET's Level 5 recommendationThe CMO and the Health Minister discussed the 'deteriorating epidemiological situation' ahead of NPHET's Level 5 recommendation on Sunday The deteriorating epidemiological situation is you are using a failed pcr test and then using that data in your prediction algorithms. In 3 weeks time we'll know who was right and who was wrong. Will there be consequences for whoever is wrong? Given that the country is in lockdown, with more draconian measures and the demolishing of our civil liberties, despite the incredibly low levels of covid deaths I think the deteriorating situation relates more to democracy.

Schools have to be a big influencer in the drive of transmission. Numbers are being talked down.
