Simon Harris: Keep a list of who you meet and we'll get through Covid crisis

Mr Harris also appealed to the public to “cop on” and to keep a list of people they meet.

Minister for Health Simon Harris has said that regional responses to restrictions for Covid-19 could be considered, but that it would be difficult to implement in a small country like Ireland.

A “more nuanced approach” was something that could be considered, he told Newstalk Breakfast, especially when there were county figures like Sligo where there has not been a case of the virus in 23 days.
