A special meeting to discuss the increase in Covid-19 cases in Donegal is to take place this evening.
Deputy Joe McHugh called for the meeting, due to take place at 6pm, between the Chief Medical Officer, Health Minister and all Oireachtas members from the county.
Yesterday evening, The Chief Medical Officer, Dr Tony Holohan, said there are clear examples of non-compliance across Donegal that “even the dogs on the street” know shouldn’t be happening.
