UFC star Conor McGregor has spent a million euros on protecting gear for hospital employees treating sufferers with the coronavirus in Eire.
McGregor despatched a message to the Republic of Eire’s Minister for Finance Paschal Donohoe and revealed the contents on his Twitter web page.
Donohoe had written to McGregor asking him to inform his 7.9 million Twitter followers to practise social distancing.
“Today I am purchasing myself, one million euro worth of personal protective equipment to be deployed to all the fighting hospitals in the Leinster region. Our most affected region, to this date,” McGregor mentioned.
“St James’s, Mater, Tallaght, Beaumont, Vincent’s (hospitals). Where we would be without these brave men and women, I do not know. May God bless over them and keep them safe!”

“I feel like we are moving in the right way, it just feels to me like it is not all the way,” he mentioned.
“I urge all the best way! ‘All in’ is the time period we should use right here. Little by little will value us lives.
“To see what is going on right here in Eire and all throughout the globe is heartbreaking to me. I pray.
“God speed Minister and thank you for the message, and your service to our nation.”
