Is your business ready for a “Twindemic”?

If cases continue to rise, the Government says it could reintroduce covid restrictions, although there are no plans to do so thus far.

The news comes as HSE staff have been warned to expect up to 20,000 patients with respiratory diseases this winter.

Flu and covid are both respiratory illnesses that arise from the spread of different viruses. The flu usually peaks between November and February.

Last week, professor of Medicine and Infectious Diseases at UCD Jack Lambert told Newstalk that the health service will be overwhelmed by a “twindemic” over the coming months as patients present with both the flu and covid.
