Question: when can we be free from covid 19

A pandemic on this scale has never happened before in my life time, so I do not know how long it will take to go away or for things to go back to normal! However if we all do the little bit that we can, (washing our hands, wearing masks, socially distancing, etc), the number of sick and infected people should get lower, and restrictions can ease. There is lots of information on COVID and reducing the spread of infection on the HSE website that you might find useful: https://www2.hse.ie/coronavirus/
