    Lidl in Smithfield and Tesco in Parnell St were heaving. Think Tesco closed for a bit. Lots of empty shelves in both. Clare Hall I heard was end of the world stuff! Bread was only casualty in my local Centra, but not rolls.

    Cool how **** would it be just sitting in your house with only bread to eat..... morons

    Now that events, school ect cancelled and people social distancing everywhere do not need location of cases act like it near you and do best to restrict spread
    I'm happy to stay at home with my family. Parents pick kids up a lot so hopefully they will be safer not having to be around them and the school germs.

    Don't think that's true it's been expanded to include people with underlying conditions for example.

    So 90 infected cases confirmed today

    With a quadrupling of cases each week

    March 19 -360
    March 26 - 1440

    That's two weeks from now and hopefully today's measures slow it

    20% needing hospitalization would be 288 in two weeks and 25% of those needing critical care which is 80 ICU beds


    I think if people heed the measures we might cope with this

    The increase between yesterday and today was 62%

    Hopefully that's an anomaly because if that rate keeps up, you're looking at 6,000 cases by the end of next week and ICU beds already totally exhausted.

    There should now be a national marketing campaign on TV, Radio, YouTube adverts, billboards and the sides of busses, junk mail with a simple message,

    STAY THE FCUK AWAY FROM EACH OTHER AND KEEP YOUR HYGIENE STANDARDS HIGH!

    2 deaths??

    Yep another person died this time in cork

    Most of them are going to work. Which is a tiny bit more essential than watching horses run around

    If one of the horses had got it ......

    St Patrick's day = the vintners/ drinks industry
    Cheltenham = horse racing industry.

    Don't fcuk with the 2 main sponsors of Irish politicians

    I'd imagine everyone else has the same idea. Not trying to knock it or anything. Woman in work went to her local tesco this morning before work and car park was packed with people waiting for it to open, lining up with trolleys. All she wanted was a coffee so she just left.

    I think I would knock it tbh as poster is a troll trying to stoke panic buying probably for malicious amusement because he believes himself "prepared". It's pretty scummy IMO.

    Friend of mine was pulled back in Tesco over a pack of eggs.

    We've lost the run of ourselves.

    600 more cases in France and 13 deaths.
    France will close all schools on monday
    Ohio USA has closed all schools

    Locations of cases should not be disclosed. People have proven today that they will only panic more the more they know.

    The anticipation will be worse than the mild illness you might get.

    Jesus passed by a couple of Tesco’s / Lidl’s / SuperValu’s and all jammers.

    Is he turning what's left of the bread loafs and fishes fingers that are left into mass supplies for all?

    Germany has updated it's total cases for the day from 530 to 780.

    Now almost 24,000 cases in Italy, Spain, France and Germany alone. At least 26000 or 27000 in Europe overall

    Not true, kids staying at home will make a huge difference. Think of the numbers now confined to their home and they'll only love it as well.

    These decisions are made off the back of consultation with real experts of this field, we don't know more than them, even though we all like to think so.

    Won’t make much difference
    70% of them will roam the streets anyways

    This. Plus people should be taking on board the advice given and practising it regardless of where you are based.

    OK Macron has now finished his address and there are no significant measures adopted in France, with the exception of:
    school closure from next Monday and inviting the elderly and those with pathologies to stay home.
    That with 2900 cases and 61 victims.
    I can not see how these watered down measures can possibly flatten the curve.

    Thankfully Leo and Co have the EU CDC advise to follow.

    I sincerely hope Leo believes in his words this morning because we are going to need to do a lot more very soon.

    This is just the start but I am thankful we've at least started.

    The UK are truly fcuked listening to Boris today.

    At the end of the day Boris is a highly educated leader of one of the world’s major nations and you are a keyboard loon who probably works the dullest job of all time.


    How dat feel?

    Business as usual was the message in work today despite the government's recommendations.

    At least I'll be able to leave the house later then usual roads should be fairly quiet (I hope).

    A busy commuter bus from Dublin to Meath had three people on it at 18:30 that's unheard of.

    Anyone else notice any big changes apart from the carnage in shops?

    Sigh, this kind of logic makes me sad.
    Such resentful bitterness.
