    Said it before, and will again, worst Taoiseach ever.

    He’s pretty fûcking average that’s very apparent and appreciated.

    That’s said, taking over he was seriously left tucked in behind the 8 ball such was the catastrophic mess Leo and co made of the initial response. Leo I’d have thrown in jail personally, he’s an evil corporate wánkbag... borderline treacherous his behavior towards the people of and in this country.

    When covid actually hit, I’d have preferred MM at the controls, at least he wouldn’t have had the same inclination to have his hand down the pants of corporate Ireland and tried to put something in place that was going to ensure the health and wellbeing of PEOPLE as opposed to the balance sheets of businesses.

    Any sign of humble pie from any of the Boards epidemiologists.

    Why?

    He still went against the guidance he issues.

    Will they update the covid app to include the 5 point plan system?

    Why havent they used a blanket text service like other countries do, for other alerts weather eyc?

    But he was the one that the wrath of god was aimed at.

    The whole 5 level plan is just too much detail. Remembering what each level allows. Wait until Dublin is level 4, Kildare level 3 and Laois 2!! Absolute confusion.

    If they stuck to.
    Wear a mask
    Wash your hands
    Social distance
    Limit contacts

    It would be as effective and much simpler.

    Well sticking to that isn't working - that's the problem!

    Fake suspected case to distract from ineptitude?

    So SD is negative.

    Do we think he should be allowed to keep his job now?:rolleyes:

    The OTT reactions on here earlier, calling for him to resign and how the gov was a disgrace just shows how stupid reactions on social media are.

    That was a fast result, good he is negative but he should have stayed at home today as he had symptoms, other TDs have lost positions for not complying so why should he be let off

    Not to be baldist, wasn't there a study which suggested bald men were more prone to disease than men with hair. But it didn't take into account ages apparently..

    I don't get the few comments seemingly insinuating that if he tested positive then he would be in trouble but if he is negative all is grand?

    The fact is he went to work with COVID like symptoms , it really doesn't matter what the result of the test was!

    He didn't have symptoms until this afternoon. Why should he have stayed at home when he had no symptoms at home?

    Maybe he only developed the symptoms after he arrived for work?

    Good to hear but it just goes to show how quickly some get tested

    In fairness it's only right that it was done quickly considering the people exposed.

    Bald men have more testosterone, that'd usually come with better health in men anyway.

    Do you know all the details?

    Last week I had a head cold with no cough so went to work. I developed a cough during Thursday so went home and contacted my GP. I did nothing wrong, maybe something similar with SD.

    The amount of moaning on here is shocking.

    If the CMO can't follow rules what hope have the rest of us got. He must have felt dodgy this morning.

    Why must he have felt dodgy this morning? Symptoms can turn up at any time during the day....

    Probably a plan to distract from the lack of substance in the plan

    Yes, he was coughing at the briefing and sought advice as soon as possible afterwards. He could hardly run from the stage. Why do you say he was coughing this morning?
