Is it just me or have SF vanished?

I haven't seen or heard anything from Mary Lou, Slab Murphy and other good Republicans in ages.

What's going on?

Onto the SF thread for the 1st time all day and see the SF loyal comrades now defending FF and sticking up for Michael Martin after his **** up today!!!

All in the name of bashing FG at all costs.

Absolutely hilarious.

You lads are a sight to behold, thanks:)

It may be incorrect. Maybe he misheard other figures. Maybe he pulled the figure out of the sky.

Phone Micheal Martin? Right.

I would assume he deleted it because it's unsubstantiated, but it was brought in here as it made a nice soundbite.

Micheal Martin tweeted the 51k figure, if it's not far wrong why would he have deleted it?

The WHO still recommend testing and far as I know, presume there's a reason for it.

There is no doubt a reason for it. I would not think that they would have people going to testing centres and putting so many at risk.
I'm selfish. Thinking of myself.
You either have it or don't. If you are self isolating, then you can do the test to see if you had it after this has calmed down a bit.
I don't see any point in going to get tested, wait over three weeks (at which case it would have been and gone) and still not receive results.
If it is purely to figure out how many are infected at a given time you could ring your doctor and tell them.
I am guessing that they would also like to find out the strain.

I just said that I think it's probably not far wrong.

40,000 two weeks ago, waited for equipment, still a few thousand below target of 15,000 per day and numbers growing.
So is probably somewhere around there.
At this stage does testing really make any difference?

It is just for statistics, which aren't going to be accurate anyway.

That's Martin's numbers. What are the numbers Fine Gael gave? What did Harris say today?

You could only come back from an answer about Leo with a slag. I think anyone with sense knows what happened there anyhow.

Dont know what numbers Harris or FG gave.

They could have compared with South Korea and gotten the same result.

As I said earlier...'lordy', if you are getting your rocks off on this'. Pathetic again AATM.
Leo and FG will get a bounce out of this, I don't know anyone who thinks different. Will it change FG...I doubt it very much.

From reality. They seem to shy away from anything resembling reality now.

Even the head of the nursing homes in Ireland couldn't get hold of him.

"We view it as a failure by the minister that we have to keep endlessly pursuing him as this crisis escalates hour-by-hour, day-by-day,” said Nursing Home Ireland chief executive, Tadhg Daly.

“We have sent at least five letters and emails over the last four weeks requesting engagement directly with Mr Harris but what we got is the standard civil service reply - that the matter was receiving attention"

"It is astonishing we are now well into a health crisis of a magnitude never presented before and the Minister for Health and his government have not engaged with a sector providing care to thousands of the most vulnerable people.”

I would like to ask them why they didn't have Michael Martin, MLMD, Eamon Ryan and Simon Harris there. Why no Naomi Long or Steve Aitken?
Why would there be a comparison with somebody who adopted a different regime than they did, in a DIFFERENT jurisdiction?

Because Leo is neither a leader in NI or Britain nor is his area of responsibility NI or Britain. They might as well have added Trump there.

So other than it showing that SF's MON and the UUP's Robert Swann performing better than Arlene of the DUP and Boris of the Tory's, is there anything else I'm missing?
