A very special mid-week bonus episode to get clarity on the coronavirus. Jarlath puts the questions everyone wants answered to a medical expert Irish people have come to know and trust.
Dr. Ciara Kelly gives us a much-needed calm and comprehensive breakdown of the coronavirus - what it actually is, whether it’s being dealt with, whether we need to be concerned, what the actual symptoms are and the strategies that are in place to stop it spreading. Ciara also explains the reasoning behind such a mass reaction to the virus while also explaining how decisions will be made to possibly cancel events such as the Olympics and the St. Patrick's Day Parade.
Jarlath finds out about the frantic efforts that are being made to create a vaccination, whether wearing face masks is a good idea, which hand sanitiser is best and a little known key to washing one's hands. Truly a jam-packed conversation that we all need to hear.
Tune into or download the podcasts of Dr. Ciara on Newstalk’s lunchtime live show to hear her every day for more of her zero nonsense approach to the world and current affairs.
