    85,000 deaths.

    Keelings bringing in Plane loads of cheap labour while we are not allowed travel 5km from our homes.

    €9 magical meals.

    Flatten the curve.

    Filthy face nappies everywhere.

    Cash will kill you newspapers are fine.

    Golf gate.

    RTE leaving bash.

    Anti lockdown protests will spread the virus BLM protests won't.

    Dail bar sill open.

    Guards immune from deadly virus and do not require filthy face nappy.

    Phill Hogan.

    People from the six counties and our newest ethnic minority free to move everywhere.

    Magic vaccine developed in record time predicted by so called tin foil hat nuts deemed safe for the population but masks still must stay.

    Sprits wines beers fags and lotto tickets can be sold but shirts for a funeral on the banned list.

    Compliant morons with mask around their chin half the time are fine but people with genuine medical grounds for not wearing this filthy rag face harassment.

    People paid to tell us to holiday in Ireland jet off to Spain.

    I sure there is loads more feel free to add.

    Drink only pubs allowed to open inside for a few weeks and then those with outside facilities for almost a month more and cases remained steady.

    Yet in my county 90% of the cases one week were in one nursing home; my dad being one of them.

    Pubs closed a few days after his funera (I like to think he was chuckling at me freezing my t**s off giving him a socially distanced send off!) - and cases level since.

    Almost like pubs have no effect on numbers eh ?

    Where's that exactly? We haven't hit 85,000 cases in Ireland yet, thankfully, never mind 85,000 deaths.

    You should see what it's like here in the UK. I was gobsmacked walking around my hometown and saw everyone wearing masks. Here there are signs everywhere with few paying heed.

    We sat again for an hour and a half discussing maps and figures and always getting back to that most damnable creation of the perverted ingenuity of man - the County of Tyrone.

    Up to 85,000 Irish people could die from coronavirus in worst-case scenario, Taoiseach indicates, as three more diagnosed

    I feel it is about time a politician campaigning on an anti social media platform runs for election to challenge data protection and the regulatory environs in which some of these companies exist.

    The dangers have been very evident in the past few years.

    On the basis of no restrictions being implemented ffs.

    It's a projection. Not a matter of fact.

    Yes, a worst case scenario.

    Do you understand what worst case scenario means?

    Fear mongering BS that's what it means yes I fully understand.

    Best of luck.

    You do understand the meaning of "worst case scenario", don't you? Thankfully, despite a lot of people's best efforts to not adhere to some simple rules regarding masks, social distancing, hand washing, etc., enough people have done so to avoid that worst case scenario, or anything even close to it.

    Those that use the phrase are unintentionally acknowledging that what comes out of their mouths is mostly sh*t.

    Or that maybe one example isn't every example?

    In the couple of weeks the pubs were open I know of 3 clusters of at least half a dozen that coincided with groups who had met in a pub. Pretty sure none were identified as clusters because they weren't the kind of people to use contact tracing.

    Proof that care in the community isn't working for some and their dosage needs adjustment.

    How selfish and self centred a lot of Irish people are.

    People using mental health as a free for all excuse to do as they please.
