    Let's be clear here, nobody is saying Cheltenham was ground zero for this virus but at the same time and i want to be very clear about this every single person who went to Cheltenham is a selfish pr1ck and it certainly didn't help our cause in stopping the spread.

    Bollox. The weekend before Paddys all the pubs were heaving because people knew they were going to be closed.

    All the beaches were heaving.

    All the shops were rammed with the panic buyers.

    Lets be honest, we all partied;)

    Unfortunately I also know of another case where the person was told during the week they were negative and rang by the HSE today to be told they were actually positive!!

    Would people ever just give over about Cheltenham. You’d swear the virus started there.
    It didn’t the Italian visitors for the called of rugby match were a lot worse.

    Our biggest problem in this country is the nursing homes. Everyone missed out by not acting quicker around these vulnerable areas.

    Most of our deaths are linked to nursing homes. For god sake we had agency staff moving between numerous homes for weeks.

    If someone can 100% identify exactly how many cases returned from Cheltenham it would give some reason to be going on about it.

    Almost 9000 cases did not all come from Cheltenham.

    It was the J1 types skiing that brought the virus in. Worth it though for the photos they posted on Instagram and Tinder of themselves on the slopes.

    Validation of HPSC data this week has resulted in the denotification of 1 death yesterday. The cumulative total ROI deaths is now 320, not 321

    If I walked from my home until I came to the arc of a 2 km circle, went right around the arc and then walked home, I would have travelled ~ 16.57 km.

    Why are people including the German tests in today’s “new case” growth rate when they’re all basically outdated? They’re not new cases. It’s a false narrative.

    I think all supermarkets are closed tomorrow at least the staff are getting a well deserved break.

    And the 20000 on the beer in Spain

    J1 tag is a bit much, plenty of regular students that are not silver spooned go on J1 visas.

    Many countries have run into big problems with testing - ditto with supplies of PPE

    We seem to have gotten it into our heads that we in Ireland are messing up, whilst everyone else is doing brilliantly (perhaps the media are not doing a good job of explaining this)

    We can't and won't stop the spread, that's never been our 'cause'

    Everyone that ever tested positive is counted in our overall 8,928 figure are they not.

    Could easily happen - the person might not have had Covid or a bureaucratic mistake was made when recording the death

    The reality with this situation is that no matter how well we manage this lockdown, no matter how low we bring the R0 number, it doesn't matter. We could eradicate covid 19 in Ireland in the morning, and someone would come in on a plane or ferry in the afternoon and the cycle starts again.

    That's scaremongering, are you not cognisant of the fact that the SAME thing simply CANNOT happen again as an increasing number of the population are becoming immune ???

    Don`t you have the Garda phone number?

    Reckon I should call? I’m not the type to complain to neighbours or give a crap about what they’re doing but in this serious pandemic the behaviour has pissed me off a bit, mainly because I’m worried.

    They should not be included in new case growth rate because they’re not new. They’re cases that were waiting so long to be tested here that they were sent abroad.
