    You mean, your doctor has given you this note, but hasn't told you your risk profile to covid19.

    Seems unbelievably unprofessional, sounds like hse would put you in either very high risk or high risk groupings. Link here.


    My GP is very busy.


    Half the time she doesn't even know what meds the hospital put me on.

    How many under 50’s have “chronic respiratory issues”?

    If a respiratory issue is bad enough that it makes it impossible to wear a surgical mask, it is *very* high risk (as opposed to properly fitted FFP2 masks, surgical masks almost don’t affect the air flow).

    I presume these privately owned business can refuse to allow anyone on their premise if they're not wearing a mask? Even if someone has a letter from the parish priest AND their astrologist?

    Why are you wasting your time with a GP who is not giving you the appropriate attention and consideration?

    Wow, did she suggest the letter and not wearing masks or did you ask for it?

    Just Have?? No mate you are in a high risk group. Just cop on. If you can't wear a mask, how will you deal with a ventilator?

    Looks like Big Gerry has left the building, too much truth to face up to.

    It's no big deal wearing the mask at the hairdressers. When they get to the behind the ears bit they just undo the loop, get you to hold the mask against your cheek, do what they have to do and put it back. Repeat on other side.

    A lot of people still won't wear a mask come Monday, guaranteed.

    Grafton Barber's Jervais Centre didn't require me (or the 4 other men who got their haircut during the time I was there) to wear a mask today.

    €26 euro it cost.

    At that price for a haircut youd need to be wearing Vaseline
