    LMAO

    I hope Simple Simon has 189 rooms lined up to quarantine the Bulgarian fruit pickers who came through Dublin Airport today?

    Meanwwhile a man was arrested in Roscommon this morn for travelling 2km from his home :pac::pac::pac:
    Of course if you actually looked into the story you would know that keelings are isolating them for 14 days as well as accomodating them...but hey don't let the facts get in the way of a mindless rant.

    Simple Simon...Jesus Christ grow up.

    That man spat at a gardai...classy

    Strawberries are far from essential,especially if you have to fly in 190 Bulgarians to pick them.

    And if berries were missing from the shelves, the same people giving out now would be the first to complain.

    lower mortality rate than almost any other country?

    hmm i'm gonna need a fact check on that one

    Not true, even though they are not testing the community, under-recording deaths, their mortality rate is 5.11%

    Irelands mortality rate as of today is 3.66%

    Those who are complaining about the strawberries should do some research on how the rest of the fruit and veg you find in the shops are being grown and picked (aside from where they came from).

    Is everybody still convinced there's absolutely no issue with the food supply?

    Trump saying "if the virus reappears in the fall" as if it's finished.


    What does he think is happening right now?

    Keelings have individual apartments for all of them?

    If only one of them has C19 he's most likely infected loads of them as they were all on the same plane.

    And how about transport from the airport? How do you socially distance 190 people on buses? And what would be the point considering the above?

    What medical clearances do they have?

    What a scumbag.

    The main point remains. Paddy can't venture down the road but we're flying in 190 people for "essential" strawberry picking!

    Can states not still pretty much decide what they want to do on an individual level though?

    2 clear trends today,

    1) A shift away from prolonging the lockdown and more and more countries figuring out that a reopening has to happen soon.
    2) A further homing in on the origins of the virus and that it may be lab related.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,784 ✭✭✭froog


    trump and pence basically declaring victory before they've even peaked.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,811 ✭✭✭✭Kermit.de.frog


    lol @ the maps Pence is showing. Completely irrelevant to coronavirus.

    lol number 2 is only trending cause trump said it last night. no one with any actual knowledge of this thing thinks that.

    Thats his usual MO. Put a statement out there and do his damndest to make it seem like it happened.

    The virus will go away in april

    Look we opened the country in may because the virus went away.

    Same craic with hydroxychloroquine

    He does it with everything and the simpletons suck it up.

    Forgive my utter ignorance but I can't seem to find anything other than the dailymail suggesting it is lab related. Can you point out any other sources please. TY

    Look, you could have Mr Corona from Wuhan himself declare he's here to infect the entire population of Ireland and the Boards.ie welcoming committee would be there with the red carpet!

    I have no idea maybe ask keelings.
    Paddy can make essential journeys go to the shop and get out for a walk...so needs to grow up would be my advice.
    The fact is the fruit needs to be picked. I am sure there would be queues of Irish people wanting that back breaking work...
    The UK are doing the same btw so not exactly an Ireland only thing you know.

    I am sure you also know that Bulgaria has a fraction of the corona cases we do...so they are probably more at risk of bringing it back home than bringing it here.
