Out and about yourself a lot are you?

Are people who have tested positive but staying at home being monitored on a regular basis, I am sure some by the time they have received a positive test may already be past the worst, do they at some point get/ have to ask for a second test which will then need to be negative before being marked as a recovered case?

As long as Minardi factories don't start tryna manufacture anything anyway.

isnt that what germany is doing....attributing any death they can to any underlying health issue they can and NOT to the virus itself.

Sorry, that is not the case. The German cases all stemmed initially from northern Italy and skiers. They are of course young or younger and aren’t suffering high mortality. This is a fact all over German media. Germans drive to the alps during winter. One can expect German cases to increase somewhat even as controls are in place.

It's perfectly possible to be out and about.

Some of us can't work from home and the show must go on.

Others need to walk to stay sane.

Don't conflate that with unnecessary human interaction cited above.

When a storm comes, be in the biggest boat with the most people, sure it might get a little bit "Lord of the Flies" but most survive.

That would be a bad idea in this particular storm, given the need for social distancing.

It was advice given less than 2 weeks ago, it was widely covered in the media. I have not seen it documented on gov.ie but plenty online:

I be against strongly against the elbow bump. Considering where it is suggested to cough or sneeze if no tissue.

You would hope so. The AMA person could answer that.

My teenagers getting tired of posts up on Snapchat etc of school friends out socialising while they are in. At the same time though, most teenagers seem to be calling them out over it and can see the stupidity. None of mine or close friends want to go out...they all know the score at this stage.

PropJoe10 · 21-03-2020 11:07PM

I'm getting out for regular walks on my own and making sure to stay away from others when out. I don't equate this to idiots hanging around in groups on street corners, I must say.

If I go out, it’s with my kids and I do not associate with anyone. This means I am not a multiplier. If I have any Illness, it will stay in my home. My kids haven’t been anywhere near a supermarket or anywhere in fact since the schools closed . If 1 teenager in a group of 7 has anything then could spread it to the group which could be passed onto the families,ie a multiplier.

My wife just came from job in Whitewater shopping centre. Most shops a closed but food court a opened. It was overcrowded. Lots of kids, families, older peoples... social distancing? This is joke.
Talk is cheep, appeals a useless, we need a lock down NOW.

Starting to agree with you - had my kids in since last Fri - been isolating myself before that - was opposed to "martial law" ideas, now think as problems mount and more are imminent - lock down would be welcome.
Meanwhile, my kids think I am draconian - as they see friends out and about - mine go out in gloves to the park or walking 90 mins - plus all the screen time they need for now.
But my partner is still working, seeing his mother, shopping for us - reading the AMA HSE consultant thread (for which I am grateful), this is worrying me. But he is delivering to hospitals/supply chains etc, so it is important he does work. (But he's also super important to us as well).

I wish you and your wife well - it must be distressing seeing her at unnecessary risk.

Spanish Eyes · 21-03-2020 11:09PM

I went for a walk at around 6.30 pm or so today, changed my routine from early morning. Everyone has a lie in on a Saturday right lol.

Not a soul around, no one. Walked by the off license, empty too.

Something's happening in this country of ours!

That's good to hear.

If it is coming from their peers it's a much stronger message.

Good. Seems they are intelligent then. If they keep it up along with adults, we could all have our lives back by the end of the summer.

Tis funny you say that, I said this to a friend of my 3 days ago, hence why I am convinced the Irish Government is on track to herd immunity in a nice way

So strange. Went for a drive thru Supermacs there at 8, no one but two paramedics inside and staff, drive thru was busy, though. The only groups I seen in town were teens, they don't care. Gardaí need to take action with these people.

Is there any way of convincing these teens that are so concerned about saving the planet to focus on saving their parents and grandparents? Can Greta Thunberg talk to them or something.

Hope this is getting through to them. My daughter is 13 and keeps saying but mum, they are self isolating 80% of the time ... I tried to tell her if you lived in rural anywhere when I was a kid you isolated more than that. She said "sorry but I need to tell you I cannot totally self isolate" and I said here's the number, call a taxi .... we're doing good so far.

Teens are stupid and selfish and they don't give a sh*t about the planet they are just parroting a mantra that has been brainwashed into them.
