At the 3 Lakes Hostel, we are closely monitoring all information provided by the Government or Ireland, the Health Service Executive and World Health Organisation in relation to the COVID-19 virus.

On Thursday March 12th 2020, following the recommendation by the National Public Health Emergency Team in Ireland, the Government of Ireland issued an updated statement on measures that should be taken to tackle Covid-19.

The updated measures include (but are not limited to) the following:

• individuals who have symptoms should self-isolate for a period of 14 days.

• individuals should reduce discretionary social contacts as much as possible.

• elderly or medically vulnerable people should reduce as much as possible contacts outside home.

• there should be no mass gatherings:

a) involving more than 100 people if located indoors

b) involving more than 500 people if located outdoors

• closure of museums, galleries and tourism sites

• closure to students of schools, crèches, other childcare facilities and higher education institutions.

• As a general rule, outside of work people should seek to reduce social interactions as much as possible.

• Restaurants, cafes and other businesses can stay open but should look at ways that they can implement the public health advice on social distancing.
