This week, hundreds of pages of emails, correspondence and reports emerged, detailing what happened, and didn't happen, in the nursing homes sector during the Covid-19 crisis.

900 nursing home residents have died due to Covid-19 in Ireland. They make up more than half of all deaths attributed to the disease here.
Is there anything more that should have been done to stop the virus sweeping through one of the most vulnerable parts of society?
