    This. I'm half way across the world from my family. I dont know when I will see them again at this stage. Really regret not coming home for a visit last year, I thought it wasnt a big deal, sure I'd be over this year. I wont take anything for granted after this (assuming there is an "after")

    One doesn't even have to be half way across the world, I have children living in Europe and it might as well be Timbuktu now. I know from talking with friends it is having children living in the US or anywhere at all abroad that makes them emotional right now. People say, what if anything happens to them or us. These are sobering things, how in a week or two the choice of going to see or help family becomes impossible.

    I was about to post that last positive post .Perspective is needed!!This is not in fact the end of the world.Not even close.

    If you are starting to feel that way you need to step away from social media and go for a walk or find something else to do.

    So, that was only one trial.

    Perhaps Italy's hospitals would be better equipped if persistent large scale tax fraud wasn't a thing.

    You should take that one somewhere else I reckon

    I would hope they are clean masks that have fallen out of a box, or something. Had they been used, they would've been tied. Hope being the keyword, here.
    Non used masks would be in individual bags for sterilization

    With the kids off school and people isolating and staying indoors you'd think the likes of RTE would start throwing on a few kids movies during the day and better day time viewing

    Nah, that'd cost money that's needed for *checks notes* Lottie Ryan's big marketing push!

    I’ve a query re asymptomatic transition. How can it spread if a person is not coughing/sneezing? Is it through other means like kissing on the cheek etc

    Cause people are dirty animals. Saw someone sneeze into their hand and wouldn't go off to the bathroom to wash their hands.

    Wonder if the casts of TV soaps go into isolation before the cameras?

    Art imitating life?

    (Don't watch soaps so no idea if they're doing this already)

    There is a script-writing/filming lag of about 6 weeks so it's difficult for them to reference current events.
    I think EastEnders have done it the odd time - by filming extra insert scenes on the day.

    I'm surprised Leo is using RTE and Virgin to communicate. Thought whatsapp recordings is the modern way

    It applies to a % of any population. A % aren't very bright. It's not unique to this country.

    We still have quite a high percentage. The US and the UK are way ahead in the % of deadhead, mentaler and arsehole stakes though.

    Guardian:

    Belgium will go into lockdown for nearly three weeks, the state broadcaster RTBF reports.

    From noon on Wednesday CET, all people living in Belgium will be expected to stay at home, unless it is an emergency, or they need to visit a supermarket or medical professional.

    Fair City looks daft tonight. They filmed for their paddy’s day night a couple weeks ago I guess and they are all in the pub drinking. Scriptwriters should be sacked.
