No people at the beaches.
And yet, no prob having people in non essential offices, building sites, canteens, etc.
It's all just for show.

They are all banned

Things are getting worse so it is reactive.

They gave society a chance to be responsible. And it failed

I know everyone is cranky and fed up but I really feel like Tony Holohan is doing a good job. He speaks very clearly and there doesn't seem to be any rubbish with him. I feel like I can trust what he is saying.

Bit slow at the 'containment' but maybe that was deliberate? Letting people return and infect others. But otherwise, putting on a solid face. Anyone criticising Harris is just a vacuous fool at this point.

Yeh I think the last few weeks have been about making the least worse decisions in a manner that allows the population to get used to what needs to be done. I’m sure people could look over it and find fault but given this is a crisis that most countries in the world are struggling to manage, its completely disingenuous to hold our government to a higher level with no meaningful benchmark. Lots of people doing the equivalent of an old man shouting at clouds.

Serious question:

Can I still walk the dog? Is it only to 2km?

walk 2km in one direction, turn around, walk 4km in the other direction, and then walk back, that's an 8 km walk, enough to knacker most dogs (and you're only passing any house twice along the way so the neighbours won't think you're taking the p1ss)

In future Leo just needs to get his arsé into the news studio and explain what's happening instead of confusing the whole country with this staged panto.

He then gets asked a list of coherent questions by one person and he answers.

Do you need a scenic circle for your run? People are dead

This is an honest question...

If this was 1990 and there was no social media... would corona virus be a mere footnote on Page 11 of a newspaper??

Why are they not closing the f*cking airports? Shut the place down.

Dead right, we don't need any more PPE or other daft essential equipment flown in. Socks wrapped around the faces of our medics is good enough for them and their notions.

Jesus Christ, the stats are readily available as to how it's being passed on, have a read.

Hopefully this is enforced and the Gardai are given whatever powers they need to enforce it. Massive fines for people breaking rules would have been nice.

Hope they are given a bunch of 6ft long bamboos to wack your butt if you are bold
