DUBLIN - Britain’s Prince William asked emergency workers if they thought coronavirus was being hyped up by the media during his first official visit to Ireland.
“I bet everyone’s like: ‘I’ve got coronavirus, I’m dying’, and you’re like ‘no, you’ve just got a cough,’” William said to the emergency workers. There have been 51 cases of coronavirus so far in Britain, and the government issued a action plan on Tuesday which included a warning that more than a fifth of employees could be off work at the peak of the outbreak. Ireland has two confirmed cases.
During the reception at the brewery, where William’s grandmother Queen Elizabeth was filmed pouring a pint during a 2011 visit, he quipped that “it is not often that I find myself following the queen to the pub.”He also thanked the crowd for contributing to the “very special relationship between our two countries.”
