The Last Word with Matt Cooper
Belmullet in Co. Mayo has the highest COVID-19 infection rate in the country.
One in 18 people in the town have contracted the virus, which is five times higher than the national average.
Local GP Fergal Ruane has had to continue working remotely, despite testing positive for COVID-19 himself, due to a lack of locums available.
He joined us on The Last Word to discuss the situation in the community.
