The Cliffs of Moher Visitor Experience follows all of the HPSC\u2019s guidelines.\r\n\r\nIrish health officials have said that there is no requirement for health screening\/temperature checks at this time and note that this type of screening is not recommended by the World Health Organization. It is business as usual here at the Cliffs of Moher Visitor Experience opening 8am-7pm, 7 days per week.\r\n\r\nThe HPSC will continue to closely monitor the situation and will keep us informed immediately should there be any change in the guidelines.\r\n\r\nThe coronavirus is a flu-like virus and the best way to prevent its spread it to observe good hand and respiratory hygiene habits.\r\n\r\nWash your hands frequently with soap and water. You can use an alcohol-based hand rub if your hands are not visibly dirty.\r\n\r\nPractice good respiratory hygiene \u2013 when coughing and sneezing, cover your mouth and nose. Sneeze or cough into a tissue or your elbow. Discard the tissue immediately and then wash your hands with soap and water or an alcohol-based hand rub.\r\n\r\nHealth authorities are not recommending that the general public should wear face masks. There is no evidence that using masks in the general community is of any benefit, according to the HPSC.\r\n\r\nWe will continue to keep visitors informed with the latest information.\r\n\r\nThere is more information on COVID-19 at the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.hpsc.ie\/a-z\/respiratory\/coronavirus\/novelcoronavirus\/?fbclid=IwAR1Y4xVU3q7-AcB_p-3dWd9peOlq6hUGx4MAu38GXf_AwkLit01lHXbeFfc\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">HPSC website<\/a>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"March 9th 2020, The Cliffs of Moher Visitor Experience is following public health advice in relation to the outbreak of the coronavirus (COVID-19). &nbsp; COVID-19 has now spread from China to more than 30 other countries including Thailand, Japan, Singapore, Taiwan, Germany, France, Italy, the United Kingdom, the United States Canada and Australia.
