    Wash your hands frequently

    Regularly and thoroughly clean your hands with an alcohol-based hand rub or wash them with soap and water.

    Maintain social distancing

    Maintain at least 1 metre (3 feet) distance between yourself and anyone who is coughing or sneezing.

    Avoid touching eyes, nose and mouth
    Practice respiratory hygiene

    Make sure you, and the people around you, follow good respiratory hygiene. This means covering your mouth and nose with your bent elbow or tissue when you cough or sneeze. Then dispose of the used tissue immediately.
    Stay informed and follow advice given by your healthcare provider

    Stay informed on the latest developments about COVID-19. Follow advice given by your healthcare provider, your national and local public health authority or your employer on how to protect yourself and others from COVID-19

    Imagine we had the Internet when AIDS was discovered.
    I remember back in 1983 when I was in the second year of senior school. My biology teacher was telling us about AIDS and how it was going to be worldwide news over the next couple of years.

    Anyone who thinks the paddys day parades should go ahead is nuts.

    Look man, we had this earlier and we agreed that the pagans were perhaps as bad as the christians in many ways and that we wouldn't talk about it ever again

    Imagine that, a family from the wilds of Inagh went skiing and brought the virus back, the cheek of them.

    I hope they will be ok though, I am not heartless either.

    I’d be more worried about fatalities if it was a nursing home to be honest.

    Clare Echo are saying that the 4 cases in the West are a family from Inagh in Clare.

    I've seen what purports to be a text message to parents at the school informing them of the case

    Well, people think he's a clown. I haven't seen the evidence yet. So that's my conclusion based on your ill-informed rant.

    Can you provide a source for that?

    I heard of a car accident with automatic transmission.

    Probably because the low temperatures on the piste kept the virus alive. Just a thought.

    Wonder where it originated from. It is just so rampant in that part of the world that the mind boggles.

    Anyway doctor said keep daughter in until tomorrow, rest of family grand to get back to normal.

    I thought self isolation was 2 weeks    ?

    It's probably been addressed but the thread is moving very fast.

    I thought that the official advice was that the family did not need to self isolate, and to continue as normal.

    I've met a lot of people who are unhappy with the St. Patrick's Day Parade going ahead and there's fairly good grounds for it. We should organise a big march to Leinster House to let the government know what we think of them letting these crowds in.
