Fears have been raised about the potential spread of Covid-19 from street furniture introduced by municipal district councils in Co Cork, amid claims that some are being regularly sanitised and others not disinfected at all.
The issue was highlighted when Fine Gael councillor Kay Dawson told a recent meeting of the Fermoy Municipal District Council that newly-installed canopies and street furniture in the square in her hometown of Mitchelstown were not being sanitised at all.
