An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business Seanad Éireann — 2020-03-20 ============================================================ Catherine Ardagh (FF), Industrial and Commercial Panel We meet in the Chamber in uncharted waters, in unprecedented times. The seating arrangements alone show the challenges that Covid-19 presents for us, as it did for the Dáil yesterday in the reduced numbers that attended the sitting. This virus will change how we live, work and play. It will change everything from now on. Yesterday, the Chief Medical Officer announced 191 more cases, with a total of 557 in the Republic. The Fianna Fáil group thinks of those who are unwell and wishes them a speedy recovery. It also extends its sympathies to the families of the three people who have died as a result of the virus.
