Spread the Good: Antigen tests and the latest news 17/05
05/16/21 • 16 min
This week Andrew talks through the latest stats for Ireland on COVID-19. He also dives into the complexity of antigen testing. Their use, why LIDL and Tony Hoolahan are butting heads, where Dr Ronan Glynn stands on it and what does antigen test results actually tell you? It is certainly a complex issue with nobody fully right or wrong but it helps to stay informed.
Andrew is actively working with the department of health and meeting members of NPHET weekly to discuss the communication of COVID-19, vaccines, guidelines and mental health to young adults - essentially getting his facts from the source. Spread some good this week!

Spread the Good: No news is good news 24/05
Andrew spends the vast 7 minutes of this episode of spread the good going through the news of the week. In a fantastic turn of events, there is little to talk about. We did around 300'000 vaccinations last week, 45% of adults have their first dose and and the hospitalization situation is stable. Oh, and the Indian variant isn't the end of the world either - just need everyone to get both doses and be grand. Sure look, no news is good news and I am delighted to have nothing to say! Next week is the finale of spread the good whilst we prepare to get back to normalcy ourselves with the release of season 2 in July!
