I know someone who moved over in the last few weeks that is completely stuck in limbo and has we can't find much word of anything about potential dates of reopening, or where it stands compared to other services in terms of 'essential' priority. At least they're auto renewing visas etc until then at least, but still waiting on a PPS number means they're kind of stuck at the moment about getting anything going in the country.

Would it be "extremely infectious", all supermarkets employees would be dead and buried already as they are in close contact with thousands customers every day. But miraculously all of them are healthy! I wander what's going on in nursing homes and hospitals.

It actually made me chuckle . I work in essential services, live alone, my only 2 kids live abroad and I am very lonely. My trip to Vancouver to see my daughter and my little granddaughter is off, she will be 1 year old next month. I have seen her just once since her birth. I posted her a present today. Last time I checked Leo said it was ok for me to go to the shops. The Post Office is WITHIN the shop I was travelling to, right down at the back of it. Honestly I think this crisis is bringing out the worst in people, not the best. The amount of self righteousness, spying, reporting, and judgment I have seen and heard about is astounding. We are all finding this tough, some more than others. What I did today was completely within my rights and completely within current restrictions. I put nobody at risk. The speed limit is 60km per hour the whole way in!!!!! I wasn't going to crash. I told the Garda I was going to the post office to post a parcel and he told me to have a nice day I suggest a lot of people should get off Boards.ie and go for a nice calming walk within your 2km and take a lot of long deep breaths. Thanks for the supportive comments though.

There are measures that can be taken to ease the effect on the economy. Quantitive easing, for example. We know the effect this virus can have on the population. Speculating about recession suicides is not helpful and measures can be taken against things like that. I'm not missing any point with regard to the economy
