    Load of rubbish.

    So schools opening in a phased way, and childcare. That's good. Resumption of non-covid care is also good.


    But otherwise absolutely nothing changes. Industries still being decimated. People still being isolated.

    Surely they could have allowed people to meet a household outside for social activity? Just one? Id kill to meet my friend for a walk but I can't because I live with someone else :/

    Go way out and meet your friend. A walk outside with one other person carries a tiny chance of anything happening. The boost it will give you though would be immense.

    We have the highest total of work days closed on the planet from Covid by a ****ing mile, Brazilian variant and British variant rampant in the country, sending 300 thousand kids back to school in March and wants to drive down the virus number by April. Laughable stuff. Just vaccinate the old and vulnerable and let us get back to our lives.

    That's me done (bar wearing a mask).

    We have the barber coming out to the house on Saturday.

    I did my part long enough. Time to resume my life.

    very least the 5km thing should of went especially with brazilians bringing their virus in after all our sacrafices


  • Registered Users Posts: 32,136 ✭✭✭✭is_that_so


    Disgusting from Mehole Martin and the government.

    Level 5 till April, what about then?
    They will review the situation in advance of that date. Even then it'll be construction, maybe 5km and being able to meet outside(officially!).

    Would still have all the high risk groups covered during Q2.

    Yes it's 4k from where he governs but he likes to combine our total with a seperately governed area on this island when it suits for shock and awe.

    Is the press conference with the three (possibly 4) amigos going to be on rte news now?
    We had Martin doing a speech, there'll be nothing more.

    Interesting turn of phrase on the gov.ie website about leaving certs and March 1st. that mightnt be a done deal after all.

    Wow. The plan talked about for weeks was “schools”. That’s it.

    5km bad, flights into the airport good. It’ll never be over, here.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,062 ✭✭✭funnydoggy


    Is there a document uploaded with this plan yet?

    I want to know are colleges still getting the shaft.


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,409 ✭✭✭✭AdamD


    How can we have over 60% of adults offered a dose by May, over 80% by June, but hospitality won't even be 'considered' until mid summer? None of it adds up


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 454 ✭✭Coybig_


    It's time for businesses to take matters into their own hands and reopen.

    Hopefully we see protests and demonstrations over the coming weeks.

    Unfortunately the same problems could happen with the J and J vaccine.

    The contract with them may have the same vague wording.

    I'm not watching the speech? Did he give those numbers? Because they seem ridiculously optimistic.. I thought it was all over 70s by mid-May a while ago?

    A hairdressers in Dublim opened today and Paul Treyvaud has set a date for his own reopening.

    If there was any sort of collective reopening then the government or gardai wouldnt be able to stop it. That is what needs to happen. There is public support for it, the people have had enough of this sh*t.

    I don't see colleges being back normally in sept tbh ...

    Less likely with a company that produces vaccines unless you're willing them to have problems.

    Two more weeks after the fifth followed by another two. You must remember there is a bank holiday in May and another in June. Nphet and the government have developed an intense dislike for bank holidays.

    Indeed. The Gardai can only police laws that the vast vast majority of people support.
