Why stop there? Just burn down the three countries. No people = no cases. Problem solved!

:rolleyes:

An even simpler solution; stop testing.

No testing, no Covid, no problem.

Yes no spectators

At least this time around with the nursing homes properly isolated the deaths will not be in any way comparable to the first wave.

Are they still open?

Yes there is.

Community transmission is still next to nothing. These cases were anticipated and traced. Its not ideal, but we aren't talking about Melbourne or Florida or NW England, or even Aberdeen.

I think that Aberdeen had 79 cases over a couple of cases before they went into lockdown

You would swear it was crude oil they were pumping out of the ground to keep the country a float.

Still not a second wave!!

2 of the meat factories still open, another one reopening on Monday and another opening in a week according to the news. Jesus Christ. No reporter asking why that’s the case though of course. I can’t deal with the stupidity and lack of questioning anymore

Of course no crowds, the horses won't run themselves and owners and riders will be coming in from all over the country. Ridiculous stuff.

Atlantic Dawn · 08-08-2020 06:12PM

They keep addressing the population like children, it's the bloody meat factories need the schooling.

It's also a load of balls. 110 of them in Kildare, 7 in Offaly and 1 in Laois. Yet Laois is tagged in there as if the lock down is justified. Shameful.

7 in Offaly 6 in Meath.

Offaly in lockdown

mightyreds · 08-08-2020 06:14PM

Easy to see how it escalates from 80 in Brady's ham , I know a guy who works there who tested positive, now his whole family of 6 have tested positive that's from 1 case

All them factories are responsible for loads of cases and are responsible for putting their counties into LOKdown where many businesses won't be able and are not allowed to operate to suppress the virus and to prevent community transmissions. It's madness how them factories are still allowed to operate.

The clowns stopped testing in nursing homes a few weeks ago, starting again in a panic in 1-2 weeks time

They never learn

ACitizenErased · 08-08-2020 06:15PM

The Kildare Chilling one is now bigger than the Timahoe plant as far as I know

Just have to put up one photo in defence of all the Laois-bashing.

Sadly there won’t be a similar photo-op for 2020.

Those masks proving a rip roaring success aren’t they

It's fine and it's only a cluster, take away all the cases in Kildare and Dublin and some of the other counties and the R number is 0. And dont worry about the lasting effects it's no worse then if you crash your car.

But it only takes one of them cases to travel to Dingle, Tralee etc in the past 10 days to to trigger something wider. With the volume of cases it's hard to think it's been fully contained within the boundaries. By the sounds of it there are significant numbers to come over the next few nights.

Lasting effects is an unknown, even to the scientists and medical experts at this point.

Sorry to hear that. Who came back from holidays?

Glynn says that most relate to clusters so that is positive.

But all the testing is going into them atm. The rest of the country will probably see an increase now the clusters are too big to control.

Only 300 test today across Laois,Offaly & Kildare. Not enough.

Schools probably wont open this will now probably take 4-8 weeks months of lockdown to control now.
