    video of a funeral at St Coman’s Cemetery in Roscommon town on Friday, November 6th, shows hundreds of people in attendance, with little adherence to public health advice. Very few people were social distancing or wearing masks.
    most of the people did not appear to be from the local area and had instead travelled from various parts of the country.

    Gardai investigating a funeral in co Roscommon two weeks ago, sounds like a few more than 25 people in attendance there.

    They didn't though. When this kicked off in January (on boards, as opposed to whenever the original virus surfaced), there were what, 20-25% fatality rates reported? Those rates turned out to be way overestimated thankfully, but they did not know that at the time, and they did nothing. When Lombardy was overrun, and doctors were having to decide which patients to treat, and which to let die, there were people still coming and going on their skiing holidays.

    Governments will never forget the horror that unfolded in Lombardy and will thus respond appropriately to any future novel virus.

    The point is what is known now, not what was known then.

    It would appear Dublin buses are the new drinking spots.

    More drinking onboard than not.

    Group of youths on way into city centre discussing the vaccine, no way am I taking it said one....the other said he'll wait until people take it first....

    Town itself was full of small groups drinking bottles of cans, in fairness most just 3 or 4 people,

    But certainly you can feel the sense people are ready to explode, people in need of big session by the looks of it!

    You'd better tell RTE because they mentioned it on TV and Radio.

    Hospital cases would be practically zero if it weren't for hospital outbreaks.

    You have a scientist, yes. Dr Fauci in the US, Dr. Van Tam in the UK.
    Not the CMO. Witty in the UK isn't even rolled out some days.

    Which of the three countries you mentioned is doing better do you think? Ireland, the UK, or the US?

    Also Dr Fauci hasn't been allowed to be the sole figurehead relating to Covid advice in the US, contrary to the wishes of the CDC. Dr Brix has been addressing the public too, and Trump has been constantly speaking over, interrupting, and in general undermining both of them, contributing to an incoherent response to the pandemic in the US.

    Yeah, lots of young people drinking pints and meeting in groups, no social distancing etc.

    But it is outdoors, and I have seen this even during the summer. I don't think this is particularly risky behaviour? I don't know.

    Jaysus, that looks freezing. Someone should tell them they will catch a cold out in that.

    Are you allowed leave your county for a funeral? I presume if it is a very close relative yes
