Thanks for that I wonder what "Additional restrictions for indoor dining" would mean?

Probably haven't figured them out yet.

Slow down and drive in 3rd gear.

This guy Nolan is a lecturer. Would he deliver his lectures by displaying slides nobody could see? It is shocking he is talking about something and referring to slides nobody can see.
I can understand getting it wrong in April, but 5 months later?
One does think if they can't get this right as to what this says about their general level of competence.

Seems to me that we should have went the way of Sweden or NZ.

What we have done is a complete mess.

did you miss the bit where he said it's the most worried he's been since april?

Don't you know that there is always a running commentary of cherry picked quotes to suit a narrative, it's how it works around here..

Oranage2 · 16-09-2020 06:45PM

Closing down Dublin is effectively closing down half the country, it's not something the government won't to do

stephenjmcd · 16-09-2020 06:46PM

They're pushing now that this isn't just a Dublin problem, for all the commentary on Dublin there are a number of counties they're worried about and nationally in general

It's simple really. Don't travel outside your county to any other county, but feel free to travel to loads of other countries.

I've said this before. NPHETs press conference is taking place live on RTE's news channel. Prof Nolan is speaking by referring to slides that are terribly hard to see. This has been going on all year and nobody has the wit to display the slides in the way Andrew Cuomo, for example, did in his presentations. I wonder about their expertise if they cannot get this simple detail correct or that nobody in NPHET thinks this is something we need to remedy.

the doh consider it a press conference not a public conference

His voice is extremely concerned almost shaking.

true, and those posters are looking more and more foolish.

Atlantic Dawn · 16-09-2020 06:47PM

At least he is not trying to put a positive spin on it.

is_that_so · 16-09-2020 06:47PM

That's a good adult talking to from Nolan. Lots of simple explanations. All up to us now!

I don't see how cases go down in Dublin without some significant intervention for at least 2/3 weeks.

All they would have to do is make the stream that is going to rte news now or the website of hse be focused on the slides show rather than camera feed and have the lads picture in picture, all at the easily managed control of hse IT dept or what I'm suspecting the sub contracted AV company.

They could change it in seconds on the fly.

this guy is clearly not happy with the government.

Nolan? He always sounds like that

random_banter · 16-09-2020 06:48PM

There is little clarity on the travel restrictions for Dublin now on Level 2.5 (other than, please don't travel if possible - soft IMO) or the threatened Level 3 - what do we think these might be? Would they be the policed roads out of the county like we saw with Kildare? Or a softer request not to travel, which those who are compliant will follow but those who don't give a damn will ignore?

That was the most concerned I've ever seen Nolan.

Atlantic Dawn · 16-09-2020 06:49PM

Closing the schools in Dublin should be on the cards.

Main message is really limiting the contacts.

Why isn't this being broadcast on the main channel? Still reporting that further restrictions are being considered for Dublin on there.

Back in March he was much the same. Getting the message across now is lot tougher.

Ah sure, be grand. Level 2, fire off the masks, neck a few pints, don’t give it a thought. It’s only a flu, be grand......

Atlantic Dawn · 16-09-2020 06:51PM

Problem with now compared to say March/April is those breaking the rules with house parties have adapted in the months since that initial lockdown and house parties are now their new normal entertainment.

Arghus · 16-09-2020 06:51PM

Pretty stark from Glynn there.

It lasts for about 1 hour so RTE News Now makes sense.
