    That's a bit tricky, as St.Malachy suggests this may be the last pope before tribulation (pandemics, plagues etc) gets underway (if he is Peter the Roman) as per 'The Prophecy of the Popes'

    You wouldn't want the last one he was a creepy looking fella, and Francie seems decent enough fella (so far) compared to all the previous ones.

    St Malachy was a troll back 1000 years ago that came up with some rare horse****e. Imagine we are still mentioning his name. Trollus siempratum.

    Yes. So wait for them to confirm it

    Just getting pissed off with people downplaying this. I am in an at risk category, and starting to get worried about myself and my family.
    And to be honest having seen it from the inside have little or no faith in the " risk management " of that overblown white elephant called the HSE.

    Take care of yourself , Runaways ..don't wait for them to get back to you..ring and ring again until you get the answers.

    What's your risk, if you don't mind me asking?

    Don’t question twitter or it might explode.

    @runaways how are you doing now?
    Absolutely agree with other posters, sick of the downplay. Take it seriously, and sensibly. Not talking about building underground bunkers but get some supplies and think ahead.

    Wind your kneck in pal. If you bothered your arse to check, you'll see it's posted by a journalist in the region. I don't think RTE news have a correspondent on the scene. And don't tell me what to post. Got a problem, you know what button to press.

    Also tweeted and reshared by multiple other journalists from the region. Maybe watch some YouTube videos on how to use Twitter.

    Way too late for that

    I apologise if I jumped down your throat. I'm just saying there's a load of rubbish being shared right now, so be careful you're not doing the same

    Am keeping an open mind on the: fire in Iran.

    But official Iranian claims of returning to normal by saturday? *disbelief*

    Absolutely, I'd expect the Iranian regime to give us a full detailed report of this incident as soon as possible....

    So a 9mth old had to be treated on the floor in a&e while she was having seizes as no trolley.

    But the CEO tells us the hse is prepared + has the capacity for cornavirus cases.

    What an absolute pile of s**te. Absolute and utter lies.

    aaah, I know people are concerned but I think people need to give runaways a break. he's probably asleep or needs a rest, stressing him out with adressing him here isn't very nice I think.
    he sounds like a sensible guy, I remember his posts from the former thread or at the beginning of this one. don't think he's mingling with people, he said he's self isolating, not even able to go out I think.

    he might come back tomorrow but I wouldn't stress it now.

    if your in risk category then simple flu might wipe you out. the poster mentioned being in cambodia theres ton of **** one can catch in places like that far worse, its like idiots going into malaria zones to volunteer then get sick.


    few cases in over 1mill population is like lotto, and while you dont have faith in hse how do you believe you will cope as theres f all you can do if you catch it by some miracle, number wise this crap is way overblown by now and media $hite, 10 deaths in few countries means little to nothing - as beating same drum if reports would come out weakly with flu or some minor infection deaths this would seems like nothing, but it aint selling the papers and not getting views so easier to push extreme agenda.

    Appreciated. I am, two different journalists have tweeted it. It seems to have only have only happened recently, minutes or hours. While it could be a fire of anything, they seem fairly sure it's s facility that is housing patients. I'm sure they could confirm easily enough if that wasn't the actual facility.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,591 ✭✭✭gabeeg


    I just don't think burning the evidence is a plausible tactic in this instance.

    So it's probably a load of crap

    Eh, not likely to be whats happening. More than likely scared locals not wanting coronavirus patients near them.

    In fairness it's the HSE, not actually a beacon of truth and transparency now are they.
