Stephen Donnelly, Ireland’s pro-lockdown Minister for Health, has said that he may reintroduce forced mask-wearing ostensibly to curb the spread of the Chinese coronavirus, telling the public to “never say never”Concerning the restrictions
A report from the Irish IndependentDonnelly said that forced mask wearing in public places and shops may be reintroduced if deemed necessary or appropriate by Irish State Mandarins.
“You couldn’t rule that out,”On Sunday, the minister informed the publication. “It’s not where we’re at, but you can never say never.”
While the Fianna Fáil minister noted that he was not receiving such recommendations to reintroduce the measure as of yet, his admission that such lockdown restrictions could come back into force arise shortly after the country’s Deputy PM, Leo Varadkar, expressed concern about Ireland’s COVID case numbers.
“[The] Number of people in hospital who are positive for COVID has risen above 300. ICU cases rising too,”Varadkar posted on social media. “Could be a blip. Could be start of a summer wave.”
“Immunity is waning though for sure,”He went on to compose. “Please get your booster if you haven’t.”

The notion that Irish officials could soon enough reintroduce forced mask-wearing comes as their counterparts in the fellow EU state of Germany have reportedly begun to actively plan the reintroduction of the measure on an annual basis every winter.
The country’s lockdown-loving health minister, Karl Lauterbach, has compared such a measure to rules mandating the use of winter tires between October and Easter.
“These rules can also be summarized that these will be our winter tires,”Lauterbach stressed that he and associates were working to prepare the rules for an Autumn lockdown.
In the meantime, the EU has moved to renew its system of COVID passports — limiting the ability to travel without a negative test for many people who have not been vaccinated against the coronavirus — for another year.
EU officials justification the renewal was that they wanted to preserve the system of health documents. “in case it is needed”Up to 2023
On June 23, the final vote will be taken on the extension.
