Patricks Day message?

And a bit of spirit raising. Might be a bit too early to up the intervention measures? They know that compliance is a huge issue.

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.

Some of it is probably true but I'd say a lot of it is internet BS. I'd rather know the facts than some fake positive BS with no backup from reputable sources.

The internet has turned us stupid,gullible and unwilling to see truth unless it's the truth we want to believe.

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.

For not seeing into the future??

Or for writing the utter ****e that is Fair City :pac:

So, that was only one trial.

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

In fairness Italy health care system is rated as one of the best in the world. Which is why this is so scary.

Source?

Medtronic, the world's largest medical device company makes ventilators in Galway. The volume it produces isn't 50% of world production though.

He's banging Claire Byrne?

No wait.....somethings not right there.

stephenjmcd · 17-03-2020 08:29PM

I'd be surprised if Leo ordered a full shutdown tonight.

Given they signed off on emergency powers this morning to go through the Dail in the coming days I'd suspect he might update people on that. Such as the power to detain people who refuse to isolate and the gardai getting powers to shutdown mass gatherings

That's horse****. How can we lock everything down for 5 and a half months. 2 to 3 weeks and society will start to get very edgy indeed. People need to live and work and provide for their families.

It will last as long as it has to. Unless s$%t hits the fans people will still be able to get groceries and work. I say you be able to go outside and walk around.

Why would the post be a joke?

Unless you can care to point out, maybe!

They allowed 5000 people from one of the most infected parts of the planet in for a piss up. They didn’t stop flights from infected regions. They lied in many interviews saying the prospects of the virus spreading in Ireland was low.

There are endless examples of how they messed this up from the start. Don’t give them credit for doing small parts of their jobs right.

I was against FG and did not vote for them but if I had a hat I would bow it to them, credit to Leo, the Simons and all FG, in this nightmare they are doing one hell of a good job imho

They're just doing their job really, they have had a easy run all along, ironic that they are a caretaker government.
