Anonymous service to report gatherings that break the law?

edjkdkjdhjkd

My sister was invited to a wedding of over 250 people which will take place next week. The number has since been reduced to 75 and will now be taking place in their house, she is hesitant to attend due to Covid, however, her friend who works as a nurse is encouraging her to report the gathering and states their is an anonymous online service for doing so.



We haven't had much luck for such a service and frankly the thought of one is quite disturbing, is she talking through her ar$e? I have advised my sister not to report them, obviously.

She's talking through her arse

There isn’t such a service unfortunately, but there should be. I can’t understand why it would be disturbing.

Easy to see how the Stasi worked in East Germany with people so eager to rat out their fellow people.

Also easy to see how the virus is spreading when some are cancelling their wedding or having small funerals and other gob****es are too important to follow the rules.

Exactly!

We should be able to do what we want, where we want and whenever we want.

Fcuk the public health guidelines. Lets keep this pandemic and the semi lockdown and threats of another full lockdown going for another few years.

As long as I get to do what my selfish ass wants , fcuk everyone else. Doesnt matter if Im the reason this goes on longer. :rolleyes:.

Govt policy is herd immunity now. For that to happen it has to spread. Once hospitals admissions and ICU numbers are tiny, there’s no issue with it spreading.

“Ireland would aim “to keep it as low level as possible and minimise infections, minimise the risk of our health service being overwhelmed, which we’ve done successfully - until such time as we develop herd immunity, which will take an extremely long time” said Mr Varadker.”

No herd immunity some one I know got it 3 times
Also it does permant damage to lungs heart and brain to some people

Herd immunity includes those vaccinated. Important point.

You need a good dose of reality from this.

Lord Fairlord

We don't follow "rules" in this country - we are meant to obey laws, and there is a fundamental difference as not just anything can be a law. The Common Law derives in part from the Natural Law, thus it is meant to have a basis of objective morality and should recognise that there is a limit to what it can demand.

Also generally, it's sad how people have come to think that the practice of fundamental freedoms (I'm not talking about licence here) is selfishness.
In the future there will be ample evidence that the so called restrictions have caused more harm than this cold related virus.

That is only your opinion, unqualified opinion too Im guessing.

My unqualified opinion is that without any mitigation measures that a lot more people would have died with/potentially from Covid.

However "unlawful" the restrictions may have been, which I presume is what you are suggesting. It would have been negligent of the State not to have acted.

Allowing the uncontrolled spread of a virus with no known vaccine, cure or reliable characteristics throughout the population is insanity.

The description of "cold related virus" down plays the apparent worrying after effects of the virus. There are indications that some people who survived Covid have adverse bowel, brain, heart and lung issues. No comparison to a "cold". We don't really know yet how survivors will really fair out over the next few years and how immuno-compromised they are or if life expectancy has been effected.

Id rather the State acted ib the way they did rather than this bull****.

How exactly have you come to the assessment that introducing restrictions will ultimately have caused more harm than good?

You realise that the virus isn't going anywhere any time soon. Most of the world has realised this and gotten on with things. Ireland seems to be the only country still threatening lockdown, lockdown does not work. Hasn't worked anywhere, all it does is kick the can further down the road.

Well if we are supposed to live this thing then that does [or should] mean going about our lives normally without masks, social distancing and worrying about how many can be in your wedding or threats of lockdowns because Leo and Mehole need to masturbate their egos again.

The fact that none of these clowns are following the rules they're making should tell you everything about this virus. If this virus was really that deadly they'd have no choice but to follow their own rules. They wouldn't be able to pull any selective enforcement nonsense.

That "Someone you know" is talking through their ar$e. There is one documented case of someone getting it twice. In the world. And that was only bc they were tested at an airport, they had no idea they had it the second time. Which is how immunity works.

Ireland is far from the only country , you couldn't honestly think that. Nowhere is getting on with things , life is normal in few places and in the places 'getting on with things' they're like Mexico or Brazil which has excess deaths over 100,000. Sorry but you can't just wish this away by ignoring it. Lockdown doesn't work but neither does getting on with things as you've put it.

Clearly, point me to where I said she wasn't lucky?

I didn't even mention it, obviously she is lucky....

Considering a 35 year old on her ward didn't make it, I'm not downplaying this virus as I know first hand what damage it can do...

Not one person in Ireland has been reinfected with covid 19, can you show me anything stating anyone has been reinfected in Ireland?

No need for an anonymous online service, just call the local Garda Station.

It would be a horrible thing to do reporting it and ruining their wedding day, no one likes an informer.

Country seems to be full of them these days just like that rat we were discussing on the other thread who uploaded the video of a few young people letting off a bit of steam.

A Junta would usually have a special ops unit. Sometimes completely separate to the Junta itself how not to upset members from within. NPHET could possibly have arms that we are not aware of.

Her friend (the nurse) demanded the address and threatened to report them herself, wouldn't be surprised if she is spotted patrolling the area that weekend searching for the house, weirdo.

You don't think the willingness to obey such restrictions will be giving government ideas.

Get a grip, snitching on people living their lives, ONE thing we can all agree on is this Covid19 danger has been HUGLEY exaggerated , CDC is in USA has now downgraded the number of Covid19 deaths to actually only 6% of what has been reported.
Covid19 is dangerous to only certain demographics, the very old on the way out and those with already underlying health conditions, keep them safe and let the rest of the country get back to normal.
https://www.msn.com/en-us/health/medical/cdc-94percent-of-covid-19-deaths-had-underlying-medical-conditions/ar-BB18wrA7
Sure i was in a packed pub Sunday for 5 hours, people where there before me and still there when i left, if you are worried about it stay home, order online your food deliveries and let the rest of us get on with living our lives.
They shut the country down when we where getting 10 new infected a day, now they are opening the schools when we are getting 150 infected a day, when are you panic merchants going to accept its not the end of the world?

So you want the world to come to a stand still so people in the 90's who have already lived their life can hang in there another year or two, so the young and healthy give up the best years of their lives to extend the lives of the already close to death people in the population?

They probably don't even practice social distancing themselves, just virtue signalling. It's akin to all those rich celebs and people from affluent areas demanding more refugees but would have a heart attack if said refugees were housed any where near their residence.

Is it general concepts or just language you have a problem comprehending?

How the funk can you equate SOCIAL DISTANCING with ‘giving up the best years of their lives’? If the likes of you can’t manage to just keep a few feet away from other people or wear a mask or godforfunkingbid go without a pint then you’ve a sad little life and I’m sorry to hear that you consider it doesn’t get any better than this.

More wild extremes. No, like anyone else they are just looking for care homes to be run properly and let nature take its course rather than COVID. Anything outside of that is a personal responsibility. If the levels of COVID are higher that risk is higher.

Talking to friends and work colleagues, its widespread, umteen reports of walking into pubs ordering a pint and not even been offered a food menu.
You can see it with your own two eyes, if you are out and about and not living in a siege mentality at home, you will see people going in and out of pubs to the bookies next door, look in the windows and see plenty of customers, groups out side the door having a smoke.

You appear to be in a siege mentality with this Covid19 panic, its no where near as bad as you think, Pubs busy, children back to school with zero social distancing, sure even while standing at pedestrian crossing you can see 20,30, 40 people shoulder to shoulder waiting for the green man.
Life is going on with or with out you, if you are worried stay home and order food online, the rest of the world is getting on with living life.

I’m like the vast majority - living life as normal but with a few EASY TO UNDERSTAND sensible precautions, in order to make life easier for those (the elderly, the ill, carers and medics) who are directly impacted by the virus.

Your opinion represents the self-centred tiny minority of top-of-phone-box-dancing-drunks that are undermining all these efforts. Don’t let your conscience get the better of your fun, what ever the funk you do... that would be a disaster... ya big child.

That's complete BS. We don't know what type of immunity we can get after covid. Not all diseases have permanent immunity.

Should we pursue such an approach you definitely don't do it with large gatherings.

Supposedly Covid 19 is the most dangerous virus the world has ever seen, a extinction level event if you believe the panic, yet here we have someone who has caught it not once but three times and lived to tell the tale, thats a strange one.

Bingo!
Open up the country , let covid19 burn through the land, we will be back up and running at full speed by November.
Those who want to isolate can, and the rest get on with life, the isolated can emerge in December when there are no new cases in the land.

LOL it's far from normal to get angered by strangers online who disagree with you viewpoint on Covid (however warped they may be).

If there's one thing that I learnt from all of this it's that people with conservative views are only happy if their views don't apply to them. For the last 5 years I lived in both the UK and the US and I see the same thing from conservative voters again and again. It's also evident on Boards and in Ireland.

The same posters here who previously had such right wing views as "drug test and deny welfare", "cut people off welfare" and "have them report their job searching efforts daily".

Now we have a genuinely dangerous situation of a large public gathering in a pandemic and the very same posters are referring to people who report it as the "Stasi".

There have been rumors of people reporting gatherings in house that exceed the max amount, 4 instances of it last week in Sandyford.



Most people would agree that it's not in good taste.
