    well at least the "China virus" , is a bit more accurate than the "Wu Flu"

    Trump also mentioned Coronaflu.

    Living in a Midlands town here and 75% of my 40 work colleagues, at least, practice. I mean weekly mass etc. Age group 24-60.

    I'm 39, parents late 60s, they never went to mass. Both from Dublin, none of their brothers or sisters do or did either.

    Face masks must be worn at all times outdoors in the Czech Republic now

    just looking at flightradar24 over Prague.
    Just ONE plane - a Ryanair going from Prague to Barcelona.

    Not seeing any other inbound flights.

    The Czech's seem to have clamped down hard??

    Serious figures out of Italy who are in a top tier emergency now.

    What be they?

    Either televise religious services for all religions or none at all.

    Wouldn't bother me in the slightest.

    I don't see any issue with mass being aired on RTE, it will help the elderly who are not on line, need some comfort, Mammy O' Rourke telling older folks go on Tik Tok what's next she be saying Tinder, some can barely use a mobile phone

    No matter what people tell you, words and ideas can change this World

    Oil prices down to mid twenties a barrel. Could go below 20 dollars for the first time in decades soon. Cheaper diesel petrol and home heating at least.
    I notice some oil companies quoting 4-5 day lead time for home heating atm.

    Prices have dropped significantly, but I would hope they will go further, if people can hold off.

    Seriously. Public sector. I see them at Saturday evening and Sunday masses all times. I recognise their faces :D

    Everyone has their own reality.

    It's fcuking sad what's happening in Italy. Seriously. I'm a heartless cnut and this is upsetting me.

    4207 new cases in the last 24 hours with 475 deaths in the last 24 hours.

    That's us if people don't cop the fcuk on and engage in the whole social distancing thing.


  • Moderators, Home & Garden Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 19,218 Mod ✭✭✭✭DOCARCH


    2,978 total deaths in Italy. Could easily surpass China (with deaths) tomorrow.
