    So people with difference of opinion are just discarded, insulted and attacked for voicing an opinion that doesn't fit with the narrative?? Now I get it, good to know.

    A differance of opinion is different to posting misinformation and conspiracy throeries without backing up your argument with credible sources

    I gave plenty of sources but you dismiss them all and want to live in your comfort zone and deny any other possibility that you're being lied too. Just do as your told and wait for the vaccine. Don't forget to wear a mask now!!

    If someone sits in a pub and tells their mates that the world is flat or that the world is run by lizards, what kind of response do you think they'll receive?

    That reaction also happens on the internet, but there are usually rules against personal insults (not back-seat modding just pointing it out). However it's perfectly fine to point out that the view itself is false or nonsensical.

    Who told you that? The flu kills more yearly than this. "We have vaccines and treatments for flu" well the immune system is built to help is fight off viruses and infection, remember that? Odd that RTE or politicans never tell us how to build the immune system up to help keep people strong and healthy, it's almost like they want us sick so big pharma can bring on the vaccine. Just stay indoors and wait until they tell you it's safe to get your vaccine good man!

    What was the average lifespan before modern medicine?

    Masks weaken the immune system. Come wintertime many will be unable to fight off viruses because they wore a mask all summer long. All part of the plan, many will get the yearly winter Flu/cold, will run and get tested and BINGO!! All positive for this farce of a virus. *Coronavirus is from the same family of viruses as the one that causes the common cold and flu.* They are laughing at us.

    I ask, why was the airports and ports never closed? If a deadly virus was here surely they would have been the first to close. No restrictions or procedures at airports either. Yet, pubs and house parties are being blamed for "cases rising" while they never closed the airports. This is deliberate so the pub culture in Ireland will cease to exist.

    Bugger. Did someone forget to tell you you can take it off at home? Sorry about that.

    So far i have seen 2 and neither of which i would consider credible. How many people would need to be invovled for this across new and media in nearly every country in the world? How many hoispital staff would need to be lying in both there social media posts and meida breifings? The effort it would involve is honestly mind boggling

    I think your example is ridiculous, has nothing to do with the topic at hand. Rather than thinking for yourself you'll shutdown any opinion with "conspiracy theorist" or "right-wing". Here's an example, You sit in the pub and the news comes on or daily briefing, they tell you "put on a mask", "stay indoors because we are quarantining healthy people", "this is the new normal", "Covid will be with is for years to come", "only a vaccine will stop all this" and you say ok I'll do everything you say, because you think they know what is best for you, just sit tight and wait for the vaccine.
    No analysing or thinking for yourself at all. Nothing to do with control or taking away our freedom bit by bit...has the penny dropped???.

    It was a response to your post about personal insults in the thread

    You posted this earlier:

    What plan are you referring to? can you provide details

    https://www.rte.ie/news/coronavirus/2020/0506/1136898-explainer-excess-mortality-and-how-its-calculated/

    This is research reported on by RTE by the University of Linrick and of Maynooth you can ask them for sources if you want to look into it forward. There are also many other countries reporting the same.

    RTE is your source!? lol lol

    LIES!!!?? Who said any of this is lies!! Just go back to sleep and do as your told, never think for yourself and wait for instructions from LV and MM and RTÉ on what do do next.

    https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/testing/serology-overview.html

    Go to the part where it says "What do your results mean?"
    *If you test positive
    A positive test result shows you may have antibodies from an infection with the virus that causes COVID-19. However, there is a chance a positive result means that you have antibodies from an infection with a virus from the same family of viruses (called coronaviruses), such as the one that causes the common cold.*

    Its been proven that you have posted lies.

    "put on a mask"

    Just to address the rest of your post. It appears that wearing a mask mitigates someone with the disease spreading it to others. It's strongly believed the virus spreads via droplets and even finer aerosols
    "stay indoors because we are quarantining healthy people",

    Protecting them
    "this is the new normal",

    For the next while, this isn't going away any time soon
    "Covid will be with is for years to come",

    Quite likely
    "only a vaccine will stop all this"

    A vaccine is key to preventing the virus
    Nothing to do with control or taking away our freedom bit by bit...has the penny dropped???.

    If you are claiming this is all a sham and part of some "plan" then you need to explain and details this.

    You asked questions in your OP.

    Your questions were answered rationally and with evidence.

    You came back with various unverified websites and rumors that contradict the established view of COVID at this time.

    You were told where to go with this sort of argument.

    Now you're getting defensive because no one is agreeing with you.

    If you're not willing to change your mind in the fact of fact and evidence, then why do you expect people to change theirs in the absence of fact and evidence?
    Why should we listen to you and your ramblings and not medical professionals the world over?

    These things happen.

    Righto. So just to usual garden variety "its about control", "do your own research", "RTE lol", "government are liars" bingo stuff.

    We're only a few posts away from NWO, Soros, Rothschild, Bill Gates etc aren't we?

    There were 19 deaths from flu in Ireland in 2019.

    https://www.irishmirror.ie/news/irish-news/flu-season-deaths-ireland-2019-21189972

    There have been 1,772 deaths from Covid in Ireland so far in 2020.

    as opposed to your source

    https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/mediabiasfactcheck.com/technocracy-news/%3famp
    Overall, we rate Technocracy.News a far-right tin foil hat Conspiracy site that promotes quackery level pseudoscience. We also rate them Very Low in factual reporting due to the routine publication of false information as evidenced by numerous failed fact checks.

    Looks like there are plenty of people on this forum, who want to give up their freedom and comply to these draconian laws, asking no questions or have no concerns with anything imposed on us. It has already been established that the number of deaths given were misleading and inaccurate but yet they are willing to let Varadkar, Martin, Donnolly, Harris the media and so called (one-sided point of view) health professionals (who get their guidelines from the WHO) make the decisions for them, think for them.
    The scandals in nursing homes, cancer patients prevented from getting treatment, rise in mental health, suicides and anxiety all because of this virus that is being used to control us.

    The farce of a Covid app, (I bet all the ones attacking me on here downloaded it) great way for the government to track us and know our location.
    Mandatory muzzle wearing, odd that when things were really bad 3/4 months ago they were not mandatory.
    Life as we knew it is gone forever, everything we took for granted. Those that will do as they are told, will go along with everything, just wait patiently for the vaccine.
    After all of this, the ones on here still glorify and put their total trust in the government.

    Cool.

    I noticed you didn’t respond to my last post pointing out that statistically the flu is much less deadly than Covid in Ireland.

    Why is that?
