    Holy shit, reading some of the questions regarding the new restrictions on here, you have to wonder should we be more worried of the downright stupidity of people than this fucking virus.


    I mean, it's not rocket surgery, is it?

    Reminds me of this:



    Levity is important.

    Usually I’d put it down to people being wind up merchants but I think all those questions asked this evening were genuine posts.

    Don't want to get political but the amount of horrible comments leo seems to get from sinn Fein voters is very strange. The man is getting advice. Acting on it I'd say the government are doing a good job. It's almost unhealthy the hate some people have for them. There is no election and there might not be one for 4-5 years. So stop pretending Mary Lou and her new elected TDs. Could possibly have the connections and and experience the current government have. Good or bad they are the best we have for these times.

    I'm a Sinn Fein voter, I've done nothing but praise him since this beginning of this.

    Piss off bringing politics into it.

    I haven't gone for a walk for a week now.

    Sat in my garden and enjoyed the view and meditated ( sorry zoned out). Got the fresh air and so be it.

    look the reality is leo and anyone else in government doesnt give a $hit about the Irish people, you would be very naive to think they do.

    so if i want to go for a 4 km run i will, i wont be a prisoner in my own home.

    Delivered by who though?

    Can’t get a Tesco delivery slot here to save your life.

    There is nothing stopping people going to get food as long as
    * they do it alone
    * they don’t use public transport ( which they never used if it wasn’t there in th3 first place

    What’s so complex

    There are huge resources being put into home delivery at present , including large numbers of voluntary bodies

    Great. Now instead of driving to a place that I can run or walk whilst not coming within tens, even hundreds, of metres of other humans, I have to walk or run on my busy local paths where joggers and walkers are cheek by jowl. That reduces spread how exactly?

    Oh FFS get over it! It's two weeks! You are been asked to stay home and if you must walk within a 2km radius for a brief period of respite in the day ( a bit of air) it's two weeks - which may stop the spread of a virulent disease from killing you or someone you love - be a couch potato if you must, it's not that much to ask :mad:

    Well if you live miles from a shop and have no car please explain how you go to the shop. Taxi's cost money. not all shops in all locations deliver. That is my point. You will have to hope people can and will assist you. Tell that to the elderly who are afraid tonight.

    people should get it through their thick skulls that we are all on a wartime footing at the moment

    we still have the luxury of home comforts and food on the table, there is no ration books, your children are not shipped off alone to some place in the country to escape bombing runs

    all is being asked that you stay at ****ing home for a few weeks, how hard is that?

    Their not there. Why are you inventing tiny issues in response to a national crisis. The poster you responded aluded to the fact the GAA are already addressing issues you raised. I told you that Gardai in local areas know the people in their areas and will use descretion when they know they are 15 kms from the nearest shop. If you have such a problem with the issue, why not contact your local GAA club and ask if you can help co-ordinate food deliveries and liase though them with the local Garda station.

    Was it explained what had caused the lockdown to be triggered tonight/at this point?

    As opposed to a week ago?

    Maybe some mention of ICU beds, or a particular projection they just modelled, or whatever.

    Is building materials essential items or are we looking at non of them being delivered at all. What about getting one's home ready for living if it's upside down and the patio walk way isn't finished for a disabled person

    And those edge cases are allowed to have a family member support them now as well.

    This isn’t about edge cases
