Martin: Two-metre social distancing 'not required by the science' and should be reviewed

The two-metre physical distancing guideline is "not required by the science" and should be reviewed to allow Ireland's economy reopen, the Fianna Fáil leader has said.

Speaking in the Dáil Micheál Martin said that the guidance that people stay two metres apart, which has been NPHET and government advice since the outbreak of Covid-19, could not "block" the resumption of economic activity.
