A new campaign aimed at getting Ireland to adopt a stringent Zero-COVID strategy to eliminate the virus from the country has been launched today.

'We can be Zero’ is a website and hashtag devised on behalf of the Independent Scientific Advocacy Group, which is made up of many of Ireland’s leading public health experts.

Aoife McLysaght is a member of that group, and she is also Professor in Genetics at Trinity College Dublin.

She joined Kieran on Monday's edition of The Hard Shoulder to tell him why people would be on the streets asking for this if they could.
