    Youd swear twas against the law to go to the pub ffs. Publican said hell leave the backdoor open if we get a full lockdown thank god.

    Very short sighted when he's banned from ever holding a licence again.

    And when his lot runs dry how do you think he will get restocked?

    I’ve just learned that a person has been admitted to ICU of an acute hospital with complications arising from #COVIDー19.

    They are IN THEIR 20s and have NO underlying health condition.

    If you were thinking about going out tonight, perhaps think again.

    I can believe it. If you get it, you're gambling on getting a very mild dose to a very serious illness, I don't fancy that gamble thanks.

    He didn't really have a go though. He said they wont order pubs to close as we're not at that stage.
    But he said it's up to people to be mindful and basically be on top of their own personal hygiene.

    While also stating people shouldn't be locked up at home, they aren't asking people to cut out social interaction, reduce it

    Like maybe not sitting in a cramped space with a bunch off strangers, skulling pints for hours?

    Can you believe that Hong Kong which has around 2m more people than Ireland but 1/85 of the land mass has just 9 more cases than Ireland.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,492 ✭✭✭McGiver


    Full Lock-down = everything closed bar pharmacies and grocery stores

    Denmark - full Lock-down and borders closed

    Slovakia - partial Lock-down (hotels and restaurants still open), international travel severely restricted and border controls in place

    Poland - almost full Lock-down and borders closed

    Czechia - full Lock-down and borders closed

    Spain - full Lock-down from tomorrow/Monday, borders remain open


    UK - "keep calm and carry on"

    Anyone going to the pubs on Paddy's Day or any other day during this crisis are f*cking morons.

    There are frontline service people out in the communities bringing the fight to the virus 24/7.. I'm on standby from Monday and hoping, hoping hard that I'm called on to put my shoulder to the wheel.

    I'm damned proud of every paramedic, nurse, doctor, hospital worker, blood bike rider, soldier, airman/woman, sailor, civil defence member etc who are putting the the citizens health and welfare before there's.. If you're dragging the kids to McDonalds, packing the pubs etc you're an affront to these people & like I said 'a f*cking moron.

    Italy has tested 110000 people overall (today 11600)

    Fair enough. But that's 110,000 out of 60 whatever million.

    Imagine the stats if 600,000 were tested? Just 1% of their population?

    Borders of EU countries closing tonight but we are not allowed apparently or don't have the courage.

    for a second there i thought Germany were at it again...

    Tbf its shaping up like Paddy's Day. The responsible publicans acting will shame the a full response from the government. It took small parades being cancelled for them to brave up cancelling all parades.

    The British border in Ireland impacts many and varied issues in Ireland. This is one of them. How the Brits approach this has consequences for the rest of the island. EG Ian Paisley: "Our people may be British, but our cows are Irish…"

    Won't be able to get into the pub with all the army lads in there

    They want to let out 200 prisoners

    I don't get that. Aren't they already self isolating.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,077 ✭✭✭MrMusician18


    Look if you want to do something selfish and totally stupid just do it why are you looking for the approval of people who have a bit of sense?

    People going to work including me are keeping the food supply chain moving people going out to the pub are braindead selfish p*icks.

    Well then why haven't the pubs been closed by decree if we shouldn't go?

    All I saw the CMO say was that we should observe social distancing if you go to a pub or restaurant.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,445 ✭✭✭✭namloc1980



    As sad as this case is maybe it might make the it's grand brigade sit up and take notice.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,666 ✭✭✭Downlinz


    I think it's inevitable bars and restaurants etc will have to be closed. The public were asked to show responsibility in the situation and appear to have failed spectacularly between bar activity this weekend, Cheltenham and the mad supermarket dash on Thursday.

    Emergency measure in the interest of public health could be passed very quickly

    Liquor licences get revoked all the time

    And who's going to do this? Bear in mind we have no government that can pass legislation and you still haven't answered the question about afterwards. BTW you do realise that liquor licences includes hotels. Up to 200k people work in the hospitality industry.

    I think were all in this together, British, American, Persian, Arabs, African, Congolese and so on.

    Its like an alien invasion and we're all searching for a resolution from an attack.

    It picks out the weakest in society and zaps them of life...

    I haven't heard yet whether its a painful process or do people just fade away like someone gradually breathing ok ish until its a death rattle.

    I've heard that death rattle quite a lot through going to visit relatives and friends in a hospice or hospital bed, its a horrendous sound....

    Tuesday will be too late for the lockdown. It needs to happen no later than tomorrow with immediate effect. WTF is Leo waiting for? He should be addressing the nation now today. Caretaker Taoiseach or not he seriously needs to step up to the plate.

    Give it a rest. You've posted time and time again today about the same thing, lockdown now.
    We heard you the first time
