    There is something weird going on. No way there are 154 positive retests in the one day!

    Must be because they are running at capacity at present and can't process the data quick enough. For all we know today's cases notified could include a backlog clearance and todays positives will be confirmed over the coming days.
    Truth is no one knows what is happening.

    Here's my thoughts , we all have a different perspective on danger. The poster in question may have felt the environment was unsafe but that does not mean it was instead of passing on his concerns ,posting here was the priority. I offered an example of another poster complaining of people not wearing masks in restaurants or bars (,post is still up on the masks thread)
    Yes a business trying to survive, money is the bottom line. Thoughts and prayers whilst a nice sentiment don't cut it


    My priority was to get out of there and report to the relevant authourity, ive done both.
    I posted my concerns in here like many have about public places, i fail to see whats wrong with that.

    Using 7 or 14 day totals averages all of this out. They've been drawing attention to the volatility of daily totals for quite some time themselves and decisions are not made off them.

    Hundreds of thousands in China given ‘emergency’ Covid-19 vaccine (via @IrishTimes) https://www.irishtimes.com/news/world/asia-pacific/hundreds-of-thousands-in-china-given-emergency-covid-19-vaccine-1.4365585

    That Chinese claim to have suppressed it doesn't really tally with this fairly drastic step they're taking with an untested vaccine. The risks of giving healthy people a vaccine whose side effects aren't known seem to outweigh a measure to combat a virus they allege that they've defeated.

    Wow, a Leninist dictatorship caught telling a lie. We're through the looking glass here people.

    Fair play for sticking to your moral compass.

    There are those that go against public health in their own interest.

    It's to be expected sadly. Hence why most countries have sanctions.

    Most business shout capitalism and supply and demand when things going well, particularly housing.

    As soon as things turn they demand socialism immediately.

    I'm afraid I don't have much sympathy for a business acting in fragrant violation to the public health measures 6 months into a global pandemic.

    Look like a lot of the recent day positive swabs had many re-tests.

    10 reported deaths this week now the same reported number as last week.

    327 or under cases tomorrow will give us less weekly cases than the previous week for the first time since July?

    Have you never seen an online review?

    Yeah I have, have you ever heard of the White Moose Cafe? They get many online reviews because of how Paul behaves on SM. (Hint lots of them are false)
    Have you ever heard the expression 'paper doesn't refuse ink'.

    Thanks for posting about said business.

    Im claustrophobic at the best of times in a place like that, even BC(before covid) so a heads up is greatly appreciated.

    So is your logic that no posters should comment on businesses that are breaching guidelines, because the businesses are trying to make money? Even if the poster just wants to give others a heads up so they can look after themselves? That's a unique outlook.

    My logic is raise your concerns with the business, we only have the posters word that guidelines were breached . Easily done on an anonymous internet forum if there is no consequences for saying something that may not be true.
    Has the business in question no right of reply, condemned already by Social Media?

    Concern doesn't mean lockdown, it's just a warning!

    Stocking up on their Vit D levels, lovely sunny afternoon . I wrote this while sitting on my patio with a glass of beer.
    Life is for living dude, think positively it actually has a health benefit. Check Twitter if you think I'm wrong.

    Sorry was in the garden didn't see it. I actually agree with everything you say. :eek:

    I'm delighted to inform you that I've just removed you from my ignore list. Fair play.

    No, you just insinuate it repeatedly. And you're now weaseling away from your own lies.

    In time most countries will learn than suppression like in Asia is the way forward for society.

    16 is still a tiny number. We are not Asia, they happily give up a lot of liberties for that.

    A lie, singular. Ok I 'm going to suggest you PM me to find out exactly what your issue is. Because at this stage this stalking is getting weird.

    See we can agree on some stuff. Feel free to leave me on your ignore list. You obviously placed me there for a reason . A course of action I'm very reluctant to take tbh, echo chambers are pointless.
