NPHET 30 active members : 27 Civil Servants or Public Health related.3 Frontline Doctors . Clearly Not correct balance to advice Government. Needs to be replaced by smaller practical workable group @MichealMartinTD@LeoVaradkar@EamonRyan @MlMcNamaraTD
Sadly, no. Contempt for doctors is the norm in Ireland. Observe how the media uses the term Consultant like it’s a negative and Irish people largely ignore juniors doing 24 hour shifts etc. It’s cultural.
Appalling news coming from Aer Lingus as the worst seems to be coming to pass for the staff. I am flabbergasted by the passive role the Government has played here in trying to protect these vital jobs and the viability of the airline.
Finbarr Quill and his family have been running Quill’s Woollen Market in #Kenmare for 35 years. They employ 15 people, and another 30 or so in other businesses around the town. Following 3 months of lockdown, today he had the job of cleaning out his shop after overnight flooding.
Intensive care staff who risked their lives told no pay for two weeks quarentine if they take holiday like all Hse staff!! How's this fair?? They should get free two weeks holiday abroad
The death of Dr Waqar Ali Shah is a matter of sorrow for every health professional in Ireland. The IMO extends our deepest sympathy to Dr Shah’s family and colleagues.This tragedy reminds us of the risks faced & sacrifices made by health professionals in the fight against COVID19
2 yrs ago I had a heart operation. An ablation which took 3 hrs & I was fully awake for. Lying on the table that day through the tears I promised myself I'd get back rowing... Well this morning I'm getting back in the boat for my 1st row in 3 yrs. I feel like a child at Xmas😁
Tony Holohan is a patriot, an incredible public servant & a doctor who has saved thousands of lives through his leadership. He has kept us safe. I valued his counsel as Minister so much. Thank you to his family for sharing him with us. We think of them & respect their privacy
