Thanks for that. You are right. I don't have any information on cat to human transmission. We know its human to human transmission. I was probably jumping the gun thinking of 'what if it can get back from animal to human. Hopefully it doesn't happen that way.

Those behind the lockdown (prison terminology) are not capitalists. They abhor the idea of democracy and have nothing but contempt for the general public. They are the super rich and unelected technocrats. They want a digitized communistic system ruled by “experts”and the eradication of the middle class. It’s a power and wealth grab along with a massive dose of social engineering to pave the way for their aims. Think East Germany on steroids with far more advanced tech for surveillance. Zero freedom of speech and the total erosion of basic individual rights. That’s the future being prepared for us.

Yes, the lockdown was put in place because of some idealogical meaning.

****. Right. Off. You. Crackpot.

You can refuse to be tested, however in extreme cases you may detained involuntarily under the Health Act 1947 meeting the criteria laid out in law

It's not that bad. Like really not that bad.

Exactly... Crikey, it's just two swabs: one down the back of mouth and other is a nasal swab. Yes, the nasal swab is slightly uncomfortable (not painful at all) and I even joked that the tester may have been trying to poke my brain. However, it wasn't painful and was all over within seconds.

A simple pin prick blood sugar test is more painful.

22,760 looks like a very big number but just keep in mind that many of those cases have recovered or saddly passed away. The current number of active cases is likely to be half that number or less.

That said, an awful lot of people are becoming very lax about social distancing. I live on a main street with neighbours each side and can view a public road across from my house that leads to the town center, outisde my window I saw that many groups of people stopping to chat to one another and congregating in groups. There was a party in one of the houses behind me last night and all day ive been getting snapchats off a friend of a friend having a garden party with her family. This woman is regularly with men she's meeting off tinder and also attending house parties.
When all this is over and our numbers are high and deaths are high, everyone will be pointing at the government and HSE and blaming them for badly handling the pandemic, there'll be very few people with enough cop on to take personal responsibility or accept any blame for the spread of the virus and deaths of people.

South Korea reports 34 new cases of Coronavirus, highest since April 8th. Up from 18 yesterday, itself the highest in 3 weeks.

The new cases are believed to be sparked through bars and nightclubs last weekend. The government has now ordered 1,000's of venues shut.

Can anyone name three cities in South Korea? A bag of taytos for the winner.

There's a lot of scientists pushing for aging to be reclassified as a disease. We accept aging and death as "normal" because we have had no choice, but as we begin to understand what causes aging it becomes something we can potentially fix. Aging suddenly becomes the leading cause of death ( ).

So we are all born with one disease starting from birth. :-)

We should just kill them all now just in case they are infected, or set up a gulag in Cavan to drag out their demise.

Restrictions were always in place in the Soviet Union. On all kinds of things depending on what the “consensus “ was at any given time. Permits for travel was a mainstay.

Seoul, Busan (Train to, great zombie movie), Daegu

You've got the capital, the Olympics city which is easy because it sounds similar to Pyongyang, and you've got Busan which is just really famous. Then there's Incheon and Daegu.

Planned an itinerary there a few years ago but a visa muck up meant I couldn't go. This whole virus has made me really want to go see some places again. Nothing makes you want to do something like not being able to do it.

Over 17k have already recovered according to the CMO. There are roughly 5k active cases.
