“For the duration of this crisis the State will take control of all private hospital facilities and manage all of the resources for the common benefit of all of our people. There can be no room for public versus private when it comes to pandemic” https://twitter.com/gavreilly/status/1246064835575635969

While it seems we have only taken ownership of the facilities and not the staff, there should be no difference in continuity of care for private patients to public patients.

This is why we need parliamentary questions reinstated immediately to ensure transparency
