>The figures show that, last year, 34 people died in long-term accommodation. A further 23 each died in private and short-term accommodation, 13 in shielding facilities, five in housing-first accommodation, five in outreach services, eight in visiting supports, and four who were not service users.
Nothing in the article about what they died from though, drugs/addiction or sickness? Covid accounted for 3 deaths and that’s all they’ll say.
Can’t just say homeless people died and that’s all we should be outraged at, there has to be a reason as to why they died and there you can look at a solution.
sure look at the number of COVID deaths in the last month and they have removed all of the protections, doubt they care about homeless deaths
It’s all under control, developers are doing well and landlord policies are working on the poor. The continuing eradication of the working class.
No country for the old,
No country for the poor
No country for our young
A country for the some FFGG Kylie
A country for the neo conservatives who can’t see past the greed, we can bend over for foreign investment but we can’t keep roofs over our most needed.
FOI for HSE constracts during lockdown non existent under data protection.
In 2010 Regina Doherty was taking biometric data from folks signing on the dole.
This is on purpose never will they tell me otherwise.
Absolute scum
Yikes
It’s a bit of a nonsense article without details, clickbait. Maybe as well have an article as to how many Kerry or Cork people died last year.
Some details on their ages and causes of death would make the article far more meaningful.

That’s actually shocking. For comparison, [similarly sized cities in the UK did much better.](https://twitter.com/caulmick/status/1516340834505043968)
