    The whole of China was placed in Lock down, it was not only one province.

    Not to mention Hubei province alone has a population more akin to the UK in scale. There is no "like" when it comes to a comparison between Ireland and China.

    This one and the close-down-the-ports one are like a bad penny, or whack-a-mole or something.

    Long story short, it probably isn't happening. More research needed. MSM making a panic at this point is not helpful.

    Likeliest explanations are testing error (false positive on first diagnosis, or on second, or a false negative when they were recovering), atypical patient group, or low frequency lapse into poorly-detectable chronic infection.

    The more media-exciting explanations are unlikely and while not impossible, would be very surprising indeed.


    Now that’s not fair. Please do not mischaracterise what I’m saying.

    The ports are our life blood as we are an island. People holidaying with roof boxes and caravans are not.

    So after that I’d summarise your reply as ‘I don’t know’

    Check out the Socratic paradox. Might save some keystrokes next time.

    Because he's Taoiseach and they don't do that.

    Introduction, summary of achievement, main message and close.

    It's normal stuff.

    He was quiet brief.
