Show Notes

A second wave of Omicron is hitting the country like a tsunami and hospital case numbers are on the rise. The Government is reluctant to re-introduce restrictions or mandatory mask wearing, so what options remain? In today’s episode Dr Gerald Barry, Assistant Professor of Virology at UCD, speaks to Conor Pope about this fresh wave of Omicron and what ‘living with the virus’ will really mean for people in the weeks and months ahead.
