    Irish chief medical officer on rte news just said they'll contact anyone who was within 2 rows on the plane as thats close contact.
    Nothing changes and the person followed all guidelines

    Within 2 rows? Is that the established practice for this?

    Anyone know?

    So if someone else has it within the two rows they go a further two rows?

    130 people in Tenerfide hotel have been released and cleared.
    So the majority WERE NOT infected. While in a hotel sharing spaces with an infected person.

    Diamond Princess was just an anomaly

    And as far as I know they haven't been tested - asked are you ok, go home then

    Not confirmed in Dublin yet and I think the population of Dublin is a little under 10 million.

    The population of Ireland (ROI) is close to 5 million, Dublin (City and county) has less than 2 million

    Really? Virus doesn’t seem to discriminate. Surely it’ll spread from one person in Ireland to another the way it did in China?

    No, social factors very much influence epidemiological metrics like R0 and cfr.

    I updated my earlier post.

    well, with knowledge, precautions, and not being in a city of over 10 million people, hopefully it won't be just as bad

    Seems a bit mad, must have been loads of places she came in contact with, surley it would be prudent to contact all the passengers just to confirm there ok.

    True lol.

    But seriously, I think piss takers should not go anywhere near this thread anymore. Their posts will fool some people into a panic. Gone past the point of jokes and banter to be honest.

    I AM IN FULL PANIC MODE/ FEAR ZONE BECAUSE OF THIS THREAD... BUT I CANT STOP READING IT

    Postponing the rugby game is a real pain in the hole, and a big mistake given the importance of rugby to so many people.
    The Patricks can easily be postponed. I would suggest that we have it on the 12th of July this year.

    Rugby is not important.

    It could well be. Also age profile on a cruise would be in the older/risk demographic usually.

    We had an en mass quarantine in a an area where the virus has just emerged.And we’ve the majority being sent home fine.

    Being informed and ready doesn't require you to panic.

    Im sorry for my part if i made you feel that way. :o

    Be aware not scared. Be positive. Take positive action.

    Drink water ...wash your hands three times a day.

    DO ..don't worry.:o

    I don’t want to sound like an arse which I probably will so sorry.

    Do you think the people infected with the virus who travel to another country and infect that country feel anyway guilty about it afterwards?

    I would.

    You do sound like an arse. They didn't ask to be infected and they may not have known.
