Via Irish Examiner:
More than 70 people from red-listed countries have absconded from mandatory hotel quarantine since the system was implemented, it has been revealed.
Of the 75 people who left mandatory quarantine , just 24 returned to their accommodation “voluntarily” after gardaí intervened.
The Sunday Times reports more than a dozen people have left their hotel without permission in the last week alone.
Leader of the Social Democrats Catherine Murphy said it defeats “the whole purpose” of mandatory hotel quarantine if people can just walk out of their own accord.
