    Does this man not realise we are told to self isolate

    For every person that has it, it infects 4-6 people?






    It's over guys


    The rest is just damage control

    You better throw in the towel so and let the rest of us take a pragmatic approach.

    Jaysus Simon looks shockin altogether, he clearly needs some sleep and a daycent few spuds. I've always been a critic of this government but by Jesus have they pulled themselves together over the last number of days, genuinely impressed.

    Chinese Tycoon Who Criticized Xi’s Response to Coronavirus Has Vanished
    Ren Zhiqiang appears to be the latest government critic silenced by the Communist Party as it cracks down on dissent over the epidemic.

    Stop scare mongering. Jesus wept.

    Scare mongering.

    It’s my grandads who I was very close with

    That’s very sad. I’m sorry for your trouble

    Many of my chinese families are now going back to normal. I have witnessed them in their own homes ( adults) wearing masks at all times unless going to bed. The children do not wear masks.
    They have been wearing masks now since January.
    They are now living a reasonably normal life - schools re opened and factories fired up. Most are back to work (including my student just outside of wuhan)

    Their advice to me is to 'wear a mask, wash hands, eat well and keep mood high'.

    While I know it is all very well spouting armageddon type stuff and we are all in unusual times, and the deaths are horrific...... keep it real.

    Also Claire is taking the piss regarding her "self isolation". She looks and seems fine.

    My brother in law has Crohn's. He has been isolated by his consultant. The medications make him immunocompromised, as they do with many many conditions. Covid19 will wipe out folk with any serious chronic condition.

    People who stay at home can infect noone.

    It isn't black magic.

    The virus is being beaten in Asia. If Singapore can beat it, Ireland can beat it. It's not rocket science, it just needs people to not act like fúcking selfish morons.

    Another keyboard warrior who has no idea what he's talking about. She might seem fine but a 70 year old she encounters could die. Do you not get this?

    I'm thinking she isn't self isolating, just pretending to be to explain what people will have to do.

    If she was it would be plastered all over the rte and indo websites.

    Was the Corona virus one of the ways Baz tried to kill his mother?

    No I think he said there’s no public health system here....only private..beggars belief...

    Unless you have a medical or GP card there is no public health because you have to pay to get onto it. So technically correct.

    The Netherlands also go for herd immunity
    (while saying that elderly and vulnerable will be protected)


    "we must realize that it can take months or even longer to build group immunity, and during that time we need to shield people at greater risk as much as possible," Rutte said.


    https://nltimes.nl/2020/03/16/im-counting-dutch-pm-asks-country-unite-fight-coronavirus

    I’d say the Netherland will do a UK on this: after a few days they’ll realise it’s growing faster than the planned and that hospitals are overwhelmed, and they will change strategy.

    Well if restrictions are lifted and China go back to normal, what’s to stop the populous getting c19 again? They wouldn’t have built up immunity, and we don’t have a vaccine so how won’t they be reinfected?
