Can't read too much into this but wonder is it expected to be good news if government will announce on same day they get NPHET's recommendations?

Wrong on all counts
82 flu vaccine related deaths in South Korea is a fact, sadly. Whether we like it or not. Singapore halted use of same vaccines as a result.

Your "facts" are wrong.

When was this?

My friend's dad tested positive today and his wife was refused the test today. In an urban centre with a lot of cases.

This doesn't make sense.
All close contacts are tested, especially in a household.

From the HSE site:
"What to do if you are a close contact
If you are a close contact you need to:
- get tested for COVID-19
- restrict your movements for 14 days - do this from when you were last in contact with that person."
https://www2.hse.ie/conditions/coronavirus/close-contact-and-casual-contact.html

I thought I read somewhere that Northern Ireland dont test asymptomatic contacts but that shouldn't happen in Ireland.

Covid zero man McConkey just on the radio promoting stricter measures to get the cases down to 5 or 10 a day

Why doesn’t McKonkey offer to live off 350 a week and see how he feels about that for a while.

Not possible, he shouldn't be given the air time anymore.

I wonder if the Ethnic Wedding group of 50+ people who caused mayhem on the flight to Malaga the other day will be forcibly quarantined on their return? Not a chance. And I doubt they will do it voluntarily either.

Incidences like that are the leaks in the system, but sure just blame everyone else for not washing their hands.

You wouldn't have a link to that story, a bit of entertainment to read.

Most people on PUP dont even get 350e.

Who refused to get her tested? Her GP?

When her husband spoke to the contact tracer, they said they wouldn't be offering her a test at this time as she is asymptomatic. They said if she starts to develop symptoms, she should self-isolate. They also didn't mention that she should contact her GP.

Good numbers countrywide, disappointing from Wicklow, hopefully it can be contained. Wonder is it to do with the outbreak in Loughlinstown Hospital.

Countrywide numbers are going in the right direction, within a few days it will now become clear that a handful of counties are driving growth and the rest of the country has the virus under control.

There's nothing in the Wicklow numbers to cause concern. Meath and Louth are steadily growing all week, with any mentions of particular clusters.

This isn't right. She should contact local department of public health as a matter of urgency [DOPH CONTACT LIST]

Been steady enough for a good few weeks, 18 is unusual though.

Additional restrictions introduced in Finland as they announce highest number of cases to date, 461 - but that number includes some backlog. Still fairly light stuff, indoor gatherings restricted to 20 in some areas and some indoor sports training cancelled. Officials say virus is in community transmission phase in Helsinki.

Prison or High Fines, detain them, what part of ROI are they from?

Leitrim back to zero. Stuart Neilson was tweeting about the massive rise in the county a few days ago.:p:p

For last week, week 46 (08/11/2020 – 14/11/2020) there were a total of 389 cases diagnosed from healthcare workers of which that was 15% of the weekly cases.

In week 46 we had a total of 2600 cases.

RTÉ should put this front and centre of the Six One news. Oh wait, it would require sharing an inconvenient truth with the nation and we can't have that. As usual, the fault will lay with retailers and publicans.

So you don't dispute there being few to no excess deaths due to covid19 or that lockdowns are ineffective in saving lives?
Most, but not all of the Korean vaccine related deaths involved the elderly. Of the total number of fatalities, 37 people were in their 70s, followed by 34 people aged 80 or older. Four deaths involved people in their 60s, while eight individuals who passed away were under 60.
I'm sure you will happily believe that these deaths were all of natural causes but you will somehow have no problem believing that over 1000 Irish people in their late 80s and 90s with multiple chronic conditions actually died of covid!

So between 1 in 6 and 1 and 7 of total cases. This is a low level of health care worker cases (both domestically and historically within Ireland).

Yeah it sucks but no matter what precautions you take its hard to protect health care because the number of contacts is so high.

This is why every country with a priority list published has health care workers as top of the que for vaccines.
