Sinn Féin TD Pearse Doherty

New figures that show some nursing homes lost half their residents to Covid-19 make a public inquiry "inevitable", according to Pearse Doherty.

New data released shows of the 1,030 deaths, almost 60%, 601 people died across 39 homes or centres which had 10 or more people die.
