    'Official Ireland' spinning the narrative that it's "only a flu" is going to backfire if they then need to push the need for self-isolation, working from home etc etc
    After all... who self isolates for the flu as a pre-emptive measure?

    One thing I learned from reddit is that so many foreigners don't know there is a difference between Northern Ireland and Republic of Ireland.

    They are confused and think it's old news

    It is bit strange , the reaction to the Belfast case to the Dublin case

    Self isolation is recommended for people *with* the actual virus, not for the general public.

    Given that the NI case passed through Dublin airport and Connolly station in this case it makes no difference - may as well as been declared here.

    It's quite yank centric tho, and geography and geo-politics are far from their ken ;)

    So is this how it will work, any contact and you're quarantined?

    Thanks for the thread title change. I was going to ask what Part III would be called.

    How do you know you have the virus?

    Self isolation is recommended for people returning from an affected area, or a close contact, even if no symptoms. That's what the NHS recommends. Only a matter of time before the HSE copies and pastes.

    Has anyone seen the video of the guy on Dorset street in a hazmat suit spraying the streets. Clearly a prank but an evil one at that.
